Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I am 20 years old this year. Recently, I keep having wet dreams, and when I wake up, it's already in my underwear. Is this a disease? I can't control it when I orgasm. It happens every three or five days. What should I do? I'm very troubled.Doctor's answer:
For adolescents experiencing nocturnal emissions, actively overcoming the fear, anxiety, and guilt brought by it is also an effective way to eliminate the condition. After an emission, most teenagers may feel self-blame and desperately suppress their desires, believing that this will reduce or eliminate nocturnal emissions. In reality, this approach often backfires. Since you are suppressing your sexual desires during the day and keeping them deep within, according to Freud's theory: dreams are manifestations of the subconscious, revealing the true state of our inner world. During sleep at night, the repressed sexual desires naturally surface, leading to nocturnal emissions. Therefore, if nocturnal emissions occur occasionally or frequently, teenagers should not feel excessive psychological pressure. Instead, they should actively learn about sexual health knowledge and understand that nocturnal emissions are a normal physiological phenomenon. Reduce psychological stress, balance your mindset, and relax. Overcome or eliminate fear and guilt, and approach nocturnal emissions with a calm and relaxed mindset.
