I am a student and have been having immoral dreams. What is the reason?

Greetings. I am a heart detective coach. Everything is straightforward. It is evident that you have numerous reservations about yourself due to the immoral nature of your dream. I will endeavor to respond to your inquiries.

Freud postulated that dreams serve as a conduit to the subconscious, manifesting as the fulfillment of repressed desires and presenting the repressed emotions, feelings, and thoughts of the conscious mind.

The subconscious

Firstly, the questioner's evaluation of his dream is highly questionable from an ethical standpoint. It is evident that the questioner is likely to be a person with very high standards in reality. The superego enforces moral principles and strictly adheres to social norms, school discipline, and other rules that conform to social standards.

The human mind is divided into two distinct categories: consciousness and the subconscious. Consciousness refers to the part of the mind that can be perceived, while the subconscious is so named because it is hidden within the individual and is therefore not accessible to conscious awareness. Dreams represent a genuine manifestation of the subconscious. Just as consciousness is a part of the mind, so too is the subconscious, which, like consciousness, is an inherent aspect of the individual.

It is not that one is immoral; rather, it is a matter of recognizing that each individual possesses a multitude of facets and a typical spectrum of emotions and thoughts. During the waking hours, an individual may experience a range of thoughts and feelings about numerous subjects, including aspects of themselves that they may choose to suppress and regulate. These forms of repression often find their way to the subconscious mind. Dreams, therefore, serve as a conduit through which one can gain insight into the repressed aspects of the subconscious mind.

The analysis of dreams

First and foremost, the characters and elements present in a dream do not necessarily reflect the characteristics and occurrences of reality. The scenes and characters within a dream are often distorted, reshaped, and deformed representations of actual individuals, events, and even one's own emotions.

If the character traits of the teacher in the dream are completely opposite to those of the subject's actual teacher, it can be inferred that the teacher in the dream does not represent the subject's actual teacher. It is possible that the teacher in the dream represents another person in the subject's real life who exerts a sense of authority and oppression. Alternatively, the teacher in the dream may represent a part of the subject's own sub-personality that the subject oppresses.

The dream self does not necessarily correspond to the real self; rather, it may represent a part of one's consciousness that reflects the repressed aspects of the self.

The emotions experienced in the dream are an accurate reflection of one's true emotions, and this is the most valuable aspect of the dream. It is likely that the emotions involved included anger and fear. It is also possible to recall the emotions experienced at the time. Regardless of whether one may not care about expressing emotions during the day, these emotions experienced in the dream represent the suppressed true feelings.

The following specific analysis is provided for reference purposes only.

1. The statement made by a classmate that a teacher was going to catch you may be indicative of an underlying sense of foreboding, a perception of being targeted, and the presence of unsettling premonitions. The fact that the information was relayed to you indirectly, through a classmate, may suggest a degree of proximity and familiarity with this individual, in contrast to the perceived distance and estrangement from the teacher.

2. The teacher breaks into your house and conjures up an iron room to lock you in. Explain whether your negative feelings were validated, or whether you felt an invasion of your personal space. You were unable to defend yourself against this overwhelming force, and your family was unable to protect you. The fact that you were unable to escape indicates this.

What emotions does the iron room evoke? One may reflect on past experiences. Those who are oppressed may engage in rebellious actions. In this dream, the dreamer is scolding the power that has trapped him, rather than the actual teacher.

3. One may also engage in free association. Should the dream continue to evolve, what actions might be taken, and what other developments might occur? What are your thoughts and feelings about the teacher in the dream? What emotions and thoughts do you have about the person trapped in the dream? What are your views on the classmates, home, and iron room in the dream? What are your thoughts on the behavior of the person trapped in the dream when he scolds the person who trapped him? What were your feelings when you scolded?

The aforementioned interpretations of your dream are presented for your consideration. It is hoped that they will prove beneficial, and it is wished for your success.

Good evening, dear questioner.

Let's dive into your dream together! In your dream, you heard someone say that a teacher was going to catch you. You didn't take it seriously at first, but then that teacher entered your home and conjured up an iron room to lock you up. You even cursed at that teacher and tried every means to escape, but to no avail. Is that about right?

The characters in our dreams are usually teachers, parents, leaders, elders, or predecessors who can guide us. Teachers can also be called masters with skills and functions that are more advanced than ours. The teacher in the dream is not the real-life teacher, even though the person you see in the dream is a living person in real life. But remember, dreams are subconscious and virtual, not real. This includes the iron house that frames you, trapping you inside and preventing you from escaping, no matter what you do. Let's think about this together. Has anything recently trapped you, or have your parents, elders, leaders, or other people been trapped because of you, leaving you unable to escape?

You also said that the real teacher is very good to you and you are very grateful to him. You said that you insulted him in your dream and you feel a lot of guilt and self-blame. Let me try to help you understand this better. It seems that your subconscious mind is playing tricks on you. It's making you think that the teacher in your dreams is a very bad person. But we know that's not true! We also know that you have a very good teacher in real life. So, let's think about whether the teacher in your dreams is similar to someone who makes you uncomfortable in behavior, appearance, or some events. The teacher in your dreams is not the same person as the real teacher, so you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself.

Dreams are just dreams, but reality is the real deal. If you feel guilty towards the teacher, then study hard and repay the teacher's kindness to you with your studies. Does this make you feel better?

Hello! I can feel your conflict from your description. There is good and bad in the moral dimension, but there is no right or wrong, good or bad in inner feelings. There is only the feeling of being comfortable or uncomfortable. It seems that the teacher is right to be good to you, but you are uncomfortable when he assigns too much homework. This is an opportunity for growth! This uncomfortable feeling cannot be expressed because it is for your own good, so you suppress the bad emotions. However, the subconscious mind and dreams express emotions without conscious processing, and you can directly express emotions such as hatred and anger, which are your true emotions and can be expressed!

I'm thrilled to share my insights from a psychological perspective as a psychotherapist.

Have you ever thought about how much a dream can make you so entangled? It's incredible how our moral level can have a strict super-ego, and we can be the right person and do the right thing! We suppress all the true thoughts in our hearts, and we dare not express them. Not only to the teacher, but also to our parents, we cannot express them because they all love us and they are all for our own good. So the emotions that we cannot express will be suppressed. When these negative emotions are suppressed for too long, they will erupt! Either you attack outwardly, in a rage, or you attack inwardly, thinking that you are not good, not a good child, unloved, etc. This is a normal stage for children (12-18 years old) during the integration of self-identity. If they cannot express themselves, it will be chaotic, causing personality disorders, paranoia, narcissism, or borderline. But don't worry, there are ways to overcome these challenges!

How do you deal with it?

First, learn to express your inner feelings. The teacher is nice to you, and we accept it. The teacher is strict and assigns a lot of homework, which we cannot complete. We can express it: tired, annoyed, aggrieved, angry. We can express these emotions. The expression of these emotions is our true inner thoughts, and it does not mean that you are uncomfortable expressing it. The teacher is a bad person. Separate things from personalities. The teacher is a good teacher, but some of the teacher's practices make me uncomfortable. This is your feeling. Treat them separately.

Expressing repressed emotions in words is a great way to let your teacher know if the homework is too much for you. It's also a wonderful way to let your parents understand your tolerance limit. Expressing emotions can help others understand your thoughts and mood. And the best part is, there is no right or wrong!

Second, be aware of yourself, understand yourself, and accept yourself! We also have love and hate, happiness and loss, and the duality of angels and demons. They all belong to ourselves. From a psychological perspective, it is the coordination of the id (instinctual needs) and superego (moral dimension) that allows the self to achieve integration through learning, experience, communication, and exchange. This is a process that requires time, and there is no need to blame yourself too much or label yourself as an immoral bad boy.

I'm so thrilled to see your growth! I also love seeing you expressing your needs and asking for help on the platform. When we feel the internal conflict, we achieve understanding and integration through learning, discussion, and communication. This is your inner self-growth. The world and I love you, and you must also love yourself! Come on, let's do this!

Good morning. I am responding to the individual who has expressed feelings of self-doubt and anxiety due to a dream.

You indicated that you are a student. Based on your description, I believe you are a minor student who is not yet of legal age. From your description, I do not see any impropriety in your actions. Did you say you cursed at your teacher?

Your rebellious actions and profanity directed at your instructor likely contributed to your feelings of unease.

I believe there may be more to your dream than you have shared thus far. This is, of course, only my speculation.

The use of the word "shameful" indicates your own assessment of the moral implications of the dream. Could it be that the scene in question transgressed the boundaries of the teacher-student relationship?

Based on the aforementioned assumptions, I will provide a brief response.

I am unaware of your exact age, but if I may venture a guess, you are still a minor and have likely already begun puberty. This is an exciting age, when we begin to develop our professional identities, aspire to improve our lives, form expectations about love, and imagine our ideal partners. It is also a period of self-reflection, where we ask ourselves fundamental questions about our identity and our place in the world.

Kind, diligent, lazy, or what you may consider shameful? What I would like to convey is that each of us possesses a multifaceted nature and will inevitably exhibit behaviors that may be perceived as negative. This is an inherent aspect of human nature.

As with the sun in the sky, it both illuminates and creates shadows.

Regarding your dream, it is important to note that adolescents have a rich imagination, which allows for a diverse range of dreams. Dreams provide a platform for emotional expression and the release of expectations. In your dream, the familiar teacher represents a specific type of person: someone who cares about others, is patient, enthusiastic, meticulous, and almost impeccable. The characteristics that this figure exudes attract you.

In essence, your expressed preference for these characteristics may be indicative of qualities that will prove most attractive as you develop a relationship.

Therefore, it is advisable to relax and recognize that dreams are not always reality. These characteristics exhibited by this teacher may also be indicative of the kind of person you aspire to become: enthusiastic, patient, friendly, meticulous, and popular.

From this perspective, we can also understand your dream. You may wish to revisit the dream and identify which feeling attracts you more and makes you feel more. You can then attempt to make this feeling more concrete.

As you enter puberty, you will begin to notice physical changes that will focus your attention on sexual characteristics. This period also marks a shift in your understanding of gender. The changes you experience will evoke a range of emotions, including fear and excitement. Sexual curiosity, impulses, and anxiety will significantly impact your relationships with others. It is important to note that this is a normal stage of development for children your age.

You are courageous, self-aware, and demanding of yourself. You have the initiative to seek help. You can look for a trusted adult woman in your life, such as your mother or an aunt, to discuss your confusion.

Additionally, formal books can be utilized to gain insight into one's self. For instance, the book "What are you thinking?" in the "Tavistock Clinic Understanding Your Child" series for ages 10-14 "teenagers" offers a concise analysis of the changes occurring in one's surroundings and within oneself, along with guidance on navigating common scenarios at home, at school, and in social settings.

Additionally, you may wish to consult with a qualified professional, such as a school mental health teacher. Begin your journey of discovery.

Furthermore, it is important to note that swearing is not inherently negative. It is a means of expressing one's emotions. When faced with intense fear or anger, it is natural to resort to profanity as a means of releasing those emotions and swiftly overcoming the associated feelings of distress. It is therefore essential to refrain from using this as a basis for self-judgment.

I will disclose a personal insight: my analyst once assigned me to collect profanity from the internet so that I could practice and become proficient in its use. It is, in fact, a relatively innocuous practice.

Naturally, I do not condone the use of aggressive language towards others without just cause.

I hope that the questioner, who is still a student, will maintain an inquisitive mindset and pursue knowledge while learning to embrace the positive and negative aspects of themselves, as these are inherent to their identity.
