Psychotherapy for Depression Based on Dream Therapy
The unconscious mind is your saintly natural doctor. It provides you with free psychotherapy for depression and other mental illnesses. You only have to learn the meaning of the symbolic dream language in order to understand the wise messages sent by the unconscious mind in each dream image.
If you prefer, I can translate your dreams for you. You can also study my dynamic method of instant translation from images into words and easily learn the dream language. My method is a simplification of Carl Jung’s complicated method of dream interpretation. You’ll get used with the unconscious logic and understand the meaning of all dreams.
Your depression will disappear thanks to the information you’ll have in the dream images. The unconscious mind shows you what is happening with your psychological system. It shows you what happened to you in the past, and what is happening to you today.
The psychotherapy of the unconscious mind helps you become more intelligent. The knowledge you have cures your wounds and gives you self-confidence.
For example, let’s analyze the dream of a woman who suffers from depression. She got married to a man who is selfish and possessive. She has no courage to face a divorce because she loves him, even though she dislikes his behavior. They don’t have children besides being married for one year. He has a fertility problem but he doesn’t want to have any treatment.
She dreamt that a black dog was following her in the street all the time. At a certain point she stopped walking and she tried to approach the dog. However, the dog became a black panther.
The dog in dreams represents infidelity and immorality.
The street is a dangerous place where the dreamer is exposed to various threats.
The black color represents the acceptance of what is bad. This means that the dreamer accepts the bad side of her immoral tendencies.
Therefore, the fact that the black dog was following the dreamer in the street means that her immoral tendencies are following her while she is facing dangerous situations.
When a dreamer is walking in dreams, this means that she is making a research. Therefore, her immoral tendencies were following her during her dangerous research (she was in the street).
The fact that the dog became a black panther means that her immoral tendencies are stronger than what she may imagine. The panther represents a selfish and possessive person.
In other words, the unconscious mind is showing to this dreamer that she is being threatened by her immoral tendencies in her life, and that these tendencies are too powerful. The dreamer will get involved with a possessive person because of her immoral tendencies, and betray her husband.
This means that her real problem is not the terrible behavior of her husband. Her problem is the fact that she has a tendency to feel attracted by men who behave like her husband.
The fact that she is not happy with him will make her accept infidelity and get involved with another man. However, this man will be as possessive as her husband because she has the absurd tendency to feel attracted by men who are possessive and rude like her husband.
The unconscious mind is showing to this dreamer that she cannot ignore the fact that her husband doesn’t love her, and she is not happy with him. Her strong immoral tendencies won’t let her respect her husband.
At the same time, this dream is showing to the dreamer that she will tend to get involved with a possessive man that won’t be different from her husband. Her immoral tendencies became a possessive black panther. Again, she accepts what is bad because of the black color.
Thus, this dreamer’s problem is quite complicated. She not only got married to the wrong person; she has the tendency to feel attracted by possessive and selfish men. In other words, she doesn’t know how to find her perfect match. She is attracted by men who cannot be good partners for any woman.
The fact that her husband doesn’t want to have children (since he is indifferent to his infertility) indicates that he might cheat on her, or that he has no intention to be married forever.
The dreamer believed that her problem was her husband’s personality. However, her real problem is the fact that she felt attracted by a man who was not able to make her happy. This is why she got married to the wrong person. In other words, the attraction she feels for this man is absurd. It is not a healthy attraction for a man who is her perfect match.
The unconscious mind shows to the dreamer the real reason why she is suffering and how she can find peace. This vision makes the dreamer stop considering herself as a victim of her husband. She is in fact a victim of her anti-conscience, which makes her feel attracted by possessive men that cannot make her happy.
Through dream therapy she will learn how to transform the wild part of her personality into a balanced component of her conscience. She will therefore learn how to evaluate a man’s personality and find a partner who is introverted like her, instead of following the absurdity of her wild extroverted tendencies.
She will also learn how to tame her extroverted side. Her absurd extroverted side will become a sensible and sensitive part of her personality that won’t belong to her anti-conscience like it does now. She will acquire consciousness of her extroverted side, and it will belong to her human conscience. Therefore, the dreamer will control her behavior.
