Hi Racer,
I had my recurring dream last week and my T and I talked about it, so I'm going to ask questions like she asks me.
What could the potato chips represent besides a binge food?
Why do you know you ate them, even though in the dream you didn't see yourself doing it?
Did you have a physical sensation when you woke up or was it just the empty bags made you conclude that you emptied them?
I think you have good reason to be upset about the dream. You're feeling fat and are very afraid of weight gain. I think the potato chips and candy you ate might have triggered the dream. Has that ever happened before? Not just with food, but with other things. I have dreams where I am back at old jobs that are triggered by interviews or bad days at the latest job.
