He often dreamed of hanging in mid-air, leaning only on a crumbling pillar. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Right now it was an empty and far-reaching scene.

He felt a void under his feet, and his heart had nothing to rely on, as if it was about to fall out......

It's a dream in the air.

I'm sure most people have done it.

The feeling in the dream is so terrifying, as if life is hanging by a thread.

According to the dreamer, after waking up from the dream, his heart felt a real sense of falling.

It can be seen that the hanging dream only feels thrilling, but not any fun.

If you want to talk about fun, it can only be said to be a sense of happiness and steadfastness after waking up from a dream.

If according to the concept of "dreams are the fulfillment of wishes".

A hanging dream is nothing more than a dreamer's wish.

But, at first glance, it's hard to believe - who would want such a thrill?

Admittedly, there are a lot of thrill-seekers in reality.

They tend to be adventurous and like to feel the tension and excitement that dilutes the dullness and boredom of life.

It's like people riding roller coasters and Ferris wheels in amusement parks.

If you look at it from an angle, the meaning of the hanging dream is only to seek a thrill.

But if it only stays at this level.

Then the dream is not of much value.

Because thrill-seeking is not the norm of pleasure all the time.

It is impossible to restore the dreamer's endless true happiness.

Therefore, the meaning of hanging dreams should be understood at a deeper level.

Sigmund Freud once interpreted the meaning of "man climbing stairs in a dream" as "the upsurge of desire".

Perhaps, some people can't understand it.

It is not possible to think that this is just a metaphor and that there is no way to verify it.

Indeed, in Freud's interpretation of dreams: mountains, rivers, clouds...... all have their specific symbolic meanings.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, these things and desires are simply incompatible.

Some scholars even ridiculed his associative thoughts.

But, as I said earlier, whether or not such symbolism is real or not can only be judged by the dreamer or the patient's own instinct;

Rather than relying on the scientific reasoning of scholars.

It's like whether a person is happy or not, only he knows.

According to the description of some ordinary people who are afraid of heights, or people with mental disorders: when people look down from a high altitude, the hidden parts of the buttocks will shrink; And when a certain desire comes to them, it is also the contraction of that part.

So, the kind of symbolism that Freud described is real.

But please don't judge scientific rigor as a coincidence, or a lack of necessity.

If you fully understand and agree with the content of the previous psychological analysis.

It can be known that scientific explanation is an acquired education and is conscious; And instinctive feelings are innate, subconscious.

It doesn't matter which one is more precise.

It's about which one is most important.

It is precisely because the subconscious instinctive sensation is lost too much and the conscious education is received too much, resulting in confusion and conflict.

Therefore, it makes sense to understand the hanging dream as an expression of instinctive desire.

And this is also the closest thing to the truth.

Because, according to the description of a mentally ill patient: after he went through a psychological analysis and understood the meaning of the hanging dream; Suddenly, I found a real memory that matched it.

That is, when he was a child, he often jumped down from a platform more than two meters high with a group of friends.

Feel the thrill of being in the air.

Specifically, this stimulation is: first looking down in the empty space, inspiratory arrest, while the abdomen is not fully expanded, and the buttocks are not fully contracted; Only during the landing on the ground does the inhalation begin to continue, then it falls on the grass, begins to exhale, the abdomen contracts, and the buttocks expand.

The whole thing is a smooth and continuous breathing process.

That is, the most instinctive desire or pleasure of human beings.

Therefore, the way to overcome the fear of heights is to try to inflate the "hidden place" of the buttocks in a high place.

But why would he do it?

The reason: his breathing had been in a state of delayed or momentary "interruption" before this.

Breathing can only be communicated with the help of landing.

But don't simply take this as a normal phenomenon.

It is all too common to think that the average person's breathing is "interrupted" or "delayed" at some point.

For example, when people are surprised.

But the reason why it is said that his breathing is sick.

It is beyond the ordinary level and out of place.

That is, when he is bullied, or when his family's interests are undermined by the outside world; No matter how easy it is for the other party's actions to stop, he can't shout out loud and resist the people who bully him.

It's like something stuck in your throat and you can't exhale.

The whole person just stayed there dumbfounded.

That is what I said earlier: the "intruder" broke into the house of Man S and threatened his family; He felt the same way at the time, and he couldn't even make a voice of resistance.

The unexpected thwart of this instinctive resistance directly led to all his complex psychological symptoms in the future.

Because one's instincts are suddenly suppressed, the psyche will change subtly and become compromised with the outside world.

It's like someone A who wants to resist B's attack; But his instinctive resistance was unexpectedly suppressed, and he had no choice but to compromise with B.

And the result of the compromise may be a rigid acceptance of the ideas and personality of B, which were meant to be rebelled against.

As a result, his personality becomes unfamiliar.

Let's go back to the example above: he stayed there dumbfounded, not daring to make a sound of resistance.

In addition to the "interruption" of breathing, the eyes also underwent abnormalities and the pupils became dilated.

Because that's what "jaw-dropping" means.

The consequence of dilated pupils is that the vision of the outside world expands, and so does the fear.

Why?

Let's go back to that "hanging dream": he often dreams that he is hanging in mid-air, leaning only on a crumbling pillar.

Right now it was an empty and far-reaching scene.

A person who is afraid of heights is frightened because the scene in front of him seems very vast, and he is very small.

This feeling is believed to require no superfluous explanation.

From a person who is afraid of heights, it is easy to know whether his fear, whether he still has a fear of the vast scene at hand.

Make an assumption: if it is a deep hole 50 meters high, one decimeter in diameter, and the bottom can be seen.

Let a person with a fear of heights look from the top to the bottom.

It is believed that the vast majority, if not all, of people with fear of heights are not afraid.

Because his gaze was focused on this decimeter diameter range, there was no sense of emptiness.

But don't simply understand it: that's because of such a small hole, he can't fall down at all, so he won't be afraid.

Because on a rooftop with a high guardrail, it is impossible for him to fall.

But as long as he looked down, he was still scared.

Knowing this, if you have a strong sense of association, you should be able to understand the reason for the fear of "agoraphobia"; There is also the "phobia of choice" that also stems from this.

There are also "heavy days and light nights" for people with mental illness, ordinary people like the tranquility of the night and hate the hustle and bustle of the day, which is also because the night shrinks the visual range of people, so that the pupils are in a quiet contraction state.

Finally, you should also be able to feel an innate instinct: when you inhale deeply, you can constrict your pupils.

Naturally, "breathing" and "vision" are connected into one, giving a more complete answer to the hanging dream.

Of course, everyone has to look at things from a dynamic and comprehensive perspective.

Just like the "stiffness and weakness of the limbs" mentioned earlier, after the natural contraction of the pupils, there is a natural process of dilation.

Just like when a person is calm, the pupils constrict, when surprised and excited, the pupils dilate; It's a healthy process to be coherent.

If it is overly contracted, it is a depressive quiet; Overextension is a form of obsessive-compulsive mania.

Patients sometimes have trouble reassuring about traumatic memories. It is also because of the movement of the pupils.

Traumatic events and scenes keep coming to mind like a "movie".

And this "movie" was filmed with human eyes.

The human eye is like the lens of a camera.

The way the pupils move directly determines whether those scenes and events are dynamic "movies" or static "photos". (To be continued.) )
