"I have a friend..."

Jason Yu was not surprised by Bo Yu's opening, ten out of ten patients who came to him for consultation opened with this sentence, spread his hands, and motioned for him to continue.

Bo Yu paused, picked up the disposable water paper cup on the table, walked to the water dispenser on the side and took a glass of water, took a sip and put the paper cup back on the table, and smiled: "Forget it, let's be honest with you, in fact, it's me, I have often had nightmares recently, often wake up at midnight, and then can't fall asleep for a long time, lack of sleep leads to malaise, so I specially came to Doctor Yu for help." ”

Jason Yu, as an excellent and professional psychiatrist, listened to Bo Yu's story, his face was not discolored at all, and he bowed his head lightly: "Is it convenient to tell me the content of your nightmare in detail?" It will also help me to counsel you. ”

Bo Yu crossed his fingers with his hands: "You know, dreams are something that I start to forget after waking up, so I can only retell what I still remember as much as possible." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Jason Yu raised his hand and said.

"First of all, all my nightmares these days have one thing in common, and that is that I am experiencing a crisis that can destroy the world."

"In my dreams, this crisis is sometimes an overwhelming swarm of rats, sometimes an army of ruthless Terminator robots, sometimes a zombie frenzy sweeping the world... Or zombie mummies, alien invaders, and so on. ”

"Oh... Sounds really scary, and then what? Jason Yu became interested and asked.

"And then... In the dream, my friends and I ran for our lives, hiding in Tibet, and the situation became more and more desperate, and finally... Annihilation. ”

From the perspective of a professional psychological counselor, Jason Yu could see that Bo Yu had something to say, so he didn't say anything, but stared at him without saying a word.

Bo Yu sank into the chair, didn't pay attention to the doctor's gaze, was silent for a while, and then continued: "Actually, there is another detail in the dream, at the last critical moment, I actually had the opportunity to leave my friends and lovers behind and escape alone, but I didn't do that..."

Jason Yu stood up and took two steps: "Psychologically speaking, dreams are a manifestation of a person's deep subconscious, there is an old saying, called thinking during the day, dreaming at night, have you watched any horror movies during this time or?" ”

Boyu shook his head: "No, I'm not interested in that kind of thing." ”

"Did anything happen to you some time before you started having nightmares?" Jason Yu asked, probingly.

Bo Yu nodded slightly: "Yes, I chatted with a friend, and the content is related to the world situation and peace crisis, maybe what he said is more true, which scared me." “

"Looks like this conversation is the direct trigger for your nightmare... But I don't think that's the crux of your problem. ”

Jason Yu sat back in his chair: "Let's carefully analyze the content of your dream..."

Boyu's expression was serious, and he listened attentively.

"On the surface, your nightmares are not common, but they are not rare, robots, zombies, the crisis that has swept the world... These things are actually not too bizarre in the midst of a thousand strange dreams. ”

"From your description, I can analyze one thing, that is, you are not afraid of the dangers of robots and zombies in your dreams, right?" Doctor Yu held a pen in his hand and clicked Boyu.

Bo Yu nodded slightly, expressing his approval of Jason's judgment, when facing the overwhelming rat tide or zombies in the dream, he really did not feel any fear and fear, but gave rise to a kind of positive hard steel pride and determination.

"So... Since this is a nightmare, you must be afraid of something deeper... I notice that you mentioned that your friends can persist until the end in the crisis that swept the world in their dreams, and I think your relationship must be very good..."

Speaking of the group of second goods in the apartment, Boyu's face couldn't help but smile: "That's right, we are like a family, and the relationship is indeed very good." “

"And in the dream, you also gave up the idea of escaping alone because of them, which is enough to show that you are a person who values love and righteousness, then, I venture to speculate that what you are really afraid of in your heart is nothing else, it is the fear of being separated from your friends, the fear of losing them!"

Bo Yu was silent for a long time: "You... You're right, I'm really scared of losing them. ”

Hearing that Bo Yu affirmed his judgment, Jason Yu didn't see any joy on his face, but groaned: "Generally speaking... People don't worry about things that won't happen at all for no reason, even if they occasionally think of this possibility, they will be forgotten in an instant, and they won't be like you, having nightmares for days in a row, you... There should be other things on my mind. ”

Bo Yu was silent for a longer time this time, and Jason Yu didn't urge, anyway, he had already paid, even if he was silent all day, it didn't matter.

"Mr. Yu..."

Jason Yu noticed that Bo Yu was using the title Mr. Yu instead of Dr. Yu.

"Mr. Yu, I often have the illusion that this world is illusory and does not exist, as if I may disappear into this world at any time, is this a disease?" Bo Yu asked suddenly.

Yu Jason shook his head slightly: "Of course this is not a disease, to put it mildly, this is an exploration and thinking of the worldview in which he lives, the ancient philosopher Zhuangzi once fantasized about becoming a butterfly, the so-called Zhuang Shengxiao dream of a butterfly." ”

“... Life itself is an endless journey, it depends on how you understand it, the so-called flowers are not flowers, fog is not fog, even if it is me, I can't be 100% sure, the world we are in is indeed real, but no one can deny that at this moment, I! It's real! ”

Boyu's expression was a little trance...

Jason Yu looked at him: "I can give you a suggestion for this... Grasp the present, follow yourheart, whether you are confused or not, do what you think, have a clear conscience, even if this world is just a dream for you, you must wake up without any regrets..."

Jason Yu's words woke up Boyu in an instant, yes, there is no need for me to worry about what is real or unreal, live in the present, grasp the present, do what you want, and there is no need to worry about the kind of things that will not happen at all.

"Thank you, Dr. Yu, I understand, I figured it out." Boyu stood up and shook Jason's hand excitedly.

Jason Yu smiled reservedly: "You're welcome, this is what I should do... The consultation lasts three and a half hours, and I will refund you the fee for the four and a half hours. ”

"No, you don't." Boyu waved his hand, "Save it first, maybe I will trouble you if I have a problem in the future, I will work hard for you." ”

"It's okay, if you have any questions in the future, you can always come to me." Jason Yu also likes Boyu's generous and inconsiderate customers, and handed over a business card of his own with both hands.

Bo Yu solemnly put it away, and then got up to say goodbye.

Jason Yu looked at his figure coming downstairs and thought to himself, "A very interesting young man." ”
