Seeing a Psychologist for Excessive Dreaming

Dreaming is a normal physiological phenomenon, and excessive dreaming is closely related to short sleep duration, inadequate sleep depth, and poor sleep quality. Excessive dreaming does not refer to an increase in the number of dreams, but rather an increase in the number of dream memories.

"Dreaming all night" is indeed a subjective feeling and not intentionally fabricated. However, feelings can also be subject to illusions because different functional states lead to different dream perceptions, which may not accurately reflect objective facts.

For example, feeling tired in the morning despite having had sufficient rest for the body and brain, but feeling energetic after washing up. This situation does not require much concern. However, if you experience insomnia due to excessive dreaming, it should be taken seriously.

-------You need to relax, avoid excessive focus on dreaming, refrain from thinking or reading during the last half an hour to one hour before bedtime, engage in moderate physical activities (such as taking a walk), and avoid intense mental activities.

You can also consume certain foods to prevent insomnia, such as milk, fruits (apples, bananas, pears, etc.), sweet soups, millet porridge, sour jujube kernel porridge, lotus seed powder porridge, and so on. It is not advisable to use hypnotic sedatives easily, as they can cause drowsiness in the morning, addiction, rebound effects after discontinuation, and other side effects, so long-term use is not recommended.

Recommendation: If you experience insomnia and excessive dreaming, first look for the reasons within yourself or seek help from a psychologist.
