Regarding Ye Rujun's depressed mentality of seeking death, Xu Jiannan didn't feel strange at all. After three years of sleep disturbance, Ye Rujun has not completely gone crazy, which is already a miracle. She wanted to die, and it wasn't surprising at all. If you can't get a good night's sleep for a long time, your whole spirit will be in a state of collapse.

Although not surprised, Xu Jiannan was still more worried and said: "Rujun, sleepwalking may make you tired and painful, but it can't take away your life and life. If we take the right approach and cooperate with you, it is not impossible to alleviate the symptoms. A negative attitude will make your psychological burden heavier and your condition worse. Well, tell me about that dream three days ago, can you remember? Just from near to far, I want to know about your dreams, see what happened in your dreams, and then let's go back to reality and see what you did in your sleep, okay?"

Ye Rujun still seems to trust Xu Jiannan very much, or perhaps, Xu Jiannan is the only one among all the people who knows about her condition who doesn't treat her as a ghost. didn't laugh at her, didn't fear her, didn't dislike her with strange eyes.

So Ye Rujun nodded very cooperatively and said, "Okay, I will remember me clearly and tell you slowly." Before I went to bed that day, my family forgot to tie me up because they were busy looking for someone to see a doctor, and I went to bed earlier than usual, and I felt like I was asleep as soon as I lay down, at least ...... Soon began to dream. In my dream, I was dressed in white and surrounded by a group of people with tall pointed hats, torches in their hands, shouting and screaming at me, and making strange movements. I was scared, I didn't know how I was going to get out, there were all those weirdos around, there was no exit for me to get out. Later, I saw my father, who was standing in the middle of them, quietly watching me. I was so scared that when I saw my dad, I immediately ran towards him. But...... As soon as I ran in front of him, he showed a sharp knife and stabbed me. I was shocked, scared, and the cold blade felt clearly through my abdomen. But...... It didn't hurt as much as I thought. In a panic, I covered my wounds and rushed out of the crowd and ran out. Those people chased me from behind, and I just kept running, kept running...... There was no purpose, there was a thick fog and desolate scenery everywhere, and I didn't know where I was, so I could only run...... Finally, when I woke up, people were already on the nearby overpass, surrounded by a lot of people watching the excitement, as well as my family members who felt embarrassed and scared. ”

The expression of the entire dream is mostly vague and uncertain, only the part where he was killed by his father himself, Ye Rujun remembers very clearly. Actually, this is understandable, because although dreams are psychoanalytic categories, they have a lot of uncertainties. Human fantasies are usually very clear, but dreams are not. It has the potential to distort people's fantasies and aspirations in disguise. No matter who you are, it is difficult to describe your dreams from beginning to end, and even if you can give a rough idea, I am afraid that you cannot be 100% sure that what you describe must be a real dream, and there are absolutely no changes, additions or deletions. However, what the dream is like is still an unverifiable thing.

Under normal circumstances, a person can only remember a part of the dream he has made, and these tiny fragments, although they can explain certain problems, are not enough to become a fundamental means for psychologists to study the disease or treat it.

In Ye Rujun's dream, Xu Jiannan can only affirm a few characteristics. First of all, her dreams are depressing and nervous. The uneasiness and panic in reality are brought into the dream state in its entirety and even magnified. She dreamed that those who tried to attack her were invisible, and this conjecture came from her inferiority complex about her condition, and she felt that everyone around her hated her and hated her. Then the father who appeared, in the dream, gave her the only hope, but also gave her the biggest disappointment. She originally took her father as a lifesaver, thinking that he could take her out of that terrible place, but she didn't expect that her father was the one who deeply hurt her the most. It is not difficult to imagine that this disappointment comes from the doubts and slanders of her relatives. That kind of unbridled speculation, as well as the treatment method of pretending to be a ghost, made Ye Rujun feel deeply disappointed.

The thought of dying is the most prominent and obvious. Ye Rujun's "begging for death" looked like he was panicked, scared, and frightened in his dreams. But in fact, her original intention was to be relieved. Her family continued to treat her, tried all kinds of treatments, and suspected that she was haunted by unjust spirits, which actually aggravated her condition. She longs for the person who tortured her, to be able to give her a good time, to free her from this pain. At the same time, the father plays a decisive role in a family, so it is her father who dreams of her.

roughly understood Ye Rujun's dream, but still couldn't help Xu Jiannan understand the cause of her illness. In fact, even if you don't know it, it's normal, after all, there is no science that can explain the cause of sleepwalking.

But Xu Jiannan looked at Ye Rujun's haggard appearance, but he couldn't bear it, and he wanted to help her get rid of this pain.

Xu Jiannan even extended the time to observe Ye Rujun in a casual way to judge whether her sleepwalking syndrome could be an epilepsy automata. Temporal lobe epilepsy can show that you get up in the middle of the night and don't know it afterwards, but people with epilepsy often have other automatisms, such as suddenly sticking out their tongues, licking their lips, and chewing without anything even when they are awake during the day. This condition usually lasts for a few seconds or minutes, and after the attack, the person completely forgets about the attack. However, in Ye Rujun's body, Xu Jiannan did not find that she had similar symptoms at all. She is very conscious, her movements and demeanor are completely normal, and there is no uncontrollable behavior.

If the physiological and pathological factors are removed, then only the psychological factors remain. Psychiatry and psychology do not have any powerful means of treating sleepwalking. Injury prevention is usually the main focus. When the patient is sleepwalking, he should be guided back to bed, and he should not be tried to wake him, and he should not be told or blamed the next morning, otherwise it will cause severe frustration and anxiety. But obviously, Ye Rujun's family has not done it at all, and it seems that it is very likely that it will not be able to do it at present. Xu Jiannan could only secretly note that at the end of a while, he would prescribe some benzodiazepines to Ye Rujun to reduce the seizure. But in the final analysis, treating the symptoms is not the root cause, and there is no way to really help her.

Therefore, Xu Jiannan hesitated and wanted to take a risk. She wanted to hypnotize Ye Rujun, trying to dispel her fear of seeing the car accident when she was thirteen, so that she could be completely relieved of the car accident or the corpse. Say it's an adventure...... That's because Xu Jiannan is not completely sure that Ye Rujun's sleepiness has anything to do with the accident. It's just a judgment based on the coincidence of time and the situation at the time of the first sleep.

Treating patients in a "blind" way is absolutely irresponsible in Xu Jianan's view. But there was no better way to alleviate her symptoms. From the current point of view, Ye Rujun is not only serious sleepwalking, but also has serious depression. She can't rest, can't sleep normally, can't integrate into society, family, and has had a thorough impact on her real life. If she continues like this, if she is not treated, then she will definitely end up committing suicide.

And Xu Jiannan also thought about it, relieved that a car accident and a dead body would not cause a worse impact. This relief of fear is not a bad thing in any way. The worst result is nothing more than that Ye Rujun's cause is not this, and he is busy in vain......

Xu Jiannan quickly cheered himself up in his mind and made up his mind. In the end, she began to ask Ye Rujun's consent, so she said to her: "According to you, we can't accurately find out the cause of your illness. I think it has something to do with your subconscious fear, but this fear is so hidden that you don't realize it. Unless hypnosis is used, we can give it a try. I'm just giving advice, how you want to decide, how to treat, or respect what you want. ”

Ye Rujun looked at Xu Jianan with some curiosity and asked, "Hypnosis...... I always hear this word, and I have watched a lot of mysterious TV programs, and I always feel that this word is full of mystery...... I don't know, does hypnosis really work? Will the things that I'm scared of but have forgotten remember again because of hypnosis?"

Ye Rujun's worries made Xu Jiannan even more convinced of his thoughts. In Ye Rujun's subconscious, there must be a huge fear at work. Her doubts about hypnosis are entirely because she doesn't want her subconscious fear to be unearthed. She wanted to forget, for fear that any accident would draw that fear out of her heart.

Xu Jiannan explained to Ye Rujun: "I can't guarantee that the fear will not be aroused, but please believe that in the process of hypnosis, you can slowly accept the thing that frightens you." Whatever that happens, you can face it in the end. That way, you won't have such a time bomb buried in your subconscious. ”

Ye Rujun nodded after hearing this, and still looked a little uneasy and said, "The thing I'm most afraid of now is sleeping...... Dr. Xu, you're going to look at me and you're not going to mess around, are you? What if I have a sleepwalking episode during hypnosis......
