Today I wanted to open the dictionary and talk about whatever words I saw, but I saw a word for "ghost". I really saw a ghost, because the psychology of ghosts is really suitable for me to talk about. Of course we all believe in scientists, so we don’t think there are ghosts in this world.
But one thing is obvious, that is, many people have seen ghosts, some of which were people dressed as ghosts, or other situations. But if you really see a ghost, you really see a certain kind of human figure, but it suddenly appears and suddenly disappears. This kind of situation is obviously common, right? Science cannot help but admit this. How to explain this situation? To explain it in psychology, we borrow a term from psychiatry and call it "hallucination."
Hallucination means that we see something that does not exist. But the non-existence mentioned here means that there is no existence that can be touched and has a material entity. But the occurrence of some kind of hallucination at least shows that it is a psychological existence, or we can at least call it an imaginary existence. A Jungian might call this psychological reality. When do we humans have such ghostly hallucinations? It still has certain rules.
I have a kind of psychological therapy called imagery dialogue psychotherapy. In our therapy, we use imagination to discover people's psychology. So in imagination, people often see ghosts. Another correct thing to say is that ghosts do not exist. People often imagine the image of a ghost in their imagination, or sometimes even see the image of a ghost in hallucinations. Under what circumstances would this be like this?
We found that there are actually two situations. One situation is dying . A person is about to die, and this illness is very serious. At this time, he may have images of dead people or other ghosts appearing in his hallucinations. Another situation is that he has psychological problems, relatively serious psychological problems, some psychological conflicts in his heart, and a lot of negative energy. In this case, it is easier for him to see ghost images in his imagination or hallucinations.
Of course, we can say that these two situations are the same situation. For example, when a person is about to die, his mood must not be good, because most of us are afraid of death, so thinking that we are about to die, our mood must be very bad at this time. He also has a lot of negative energy and negative emotions, so he sees ghosts; it should be the same thing as someone who has psychological problems, is mentally unhealthy, has a lot of negative energy, has a lot of negative emotions, and sees ghosts. So we can draw a conclusion, that is, particularly negative emotions, particularly strong negative energy, particularly large psychological conflicts... these will awaken some ghost images in our imagination.
In fact, if some people see ghosts in imagination, dreams, or hallucinations, it means that their current mentality is bad, and the image of ghosts is a symbolic manifestation of these bad mentality. Of course, if we talk in more detail, in imagery dialogue psychotherapy, we will find that different negative emotions may inspire different ghost images.
For example, if you are particularly depressed, it is easier for you to see ghost-like ghosts in your imagination, the kind that float around and have no legs. If you have a lot of anger that is suppressed in your heart and cannot be released, then you are more likely to see the kind of grinning, green-faced, and ferocious ghosts. In this case, what can we imagine through a person's imagination or what the ghost seen in the hallucination looks like? We can then know what unhealthy psychology he has.
Therefore, this can become a very good auxiliary means for psychological diagnosis. Once the mind is very healthy and there are no problems, then the mood is good and all ghosts are gone.
