In daily life, some people are often upset and angry during the day due to work or other factors. At night, however, they have difficulty sleeping, and their dreams are disturbed. Amazingly, the worse the mood during the day, the more chaotic the night's dreams become, resulting in a worse night's sleep quality. And the worse the quality of sleep at night, the greater the temper during the day.
In fact, this situation is quite common, especially among women in their thirties and forties, who have important responsibilities in the family and society.
Today, I will tell you a prescription, which is specifically for the situation of being angry during the day and dreaming at night.
The old rule, let's talk about the case first.
Xiao Wang, female, 37 years old. Her job is an accountant. Usually, her work is very intense and very tedious. For a while, there were a lot of accounts in the unit, and she couldn't keep herself busy, and the people who helped her often made mistakes.
As a result, her state is getting worse and worse, often angry, angry, and irritable.
At work during the day, she was depressed, as if she was pressing a mountain on her heart, and it was difficult to concentrate on her work, and she made frequent mistakes. When she got home, she was expecting a moment of peace, only to find herself lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Those trivial things in the office, like thorns in her mind, made her unable to get rid of it.
Gradually, Xiao Wang felt that the whole person was almost finished. She took the initiative to ask for leave and decided to find a Chinese medicine doctor to recuperate.
On examination, the patient's pulse was thin, the tongue coating was thin and white, and the tongue was reddish. The patient reported that his stool is relatively dry, his appetite is poor, he has headaches at every turn, he is irritable and irritable on weekdays, and he wakes up from dreams at night.
After learning about these situations, the book side wrote a poem. But see—
Bupleurum chinensis, peppermint, angelica, white peony, poria cocos, atractylodes, tribulus terrestris, shou wu vine, ligustrum ligustrum, black lotus, sour jujube kernel, schisandra chinensis, white myrtle, boiled licorice.
All of them, decoction in water.
The result?
After 7 doses, the patient's sleep quality was greatly improved, and he was able to fall asleep soon after he collapsed. The condition during the day is also much better.
At this time, the original recipe was basically unchanged, adding Banxia and Prunella vulgaris, and then 14 doses.
Eventually, the patient's symptoms were calm, his stool was smooth, and he returned to normal.
This is the basic process of the medical case.
What's the rationale here?
First of all, the main problem of this person is liver depression and spleen deficiency. Liver master sentiment. If the liver is depressed, it is uncomfortable, irritable and irritable at work. If the spleen is deficient, the movement is abnormal, and the stomach is damaged, so the appetite is lost.
In addition, it is also due to the lack of yin and blood and the loss of mental nourishment, so the patient will be further irritable and irritable, and he will wake up easily from dreams and sleep poorly.
Faced with the vicious circle of "bad mood during the day and bad sleep at night", how to solve it?
The method is to soothe the liver and relieve depression. On the basis of soothing the liver, it strengthens the spleen, nourishes the blood and calms the nerves.
来看配伍:
疏肝——薄荷、柴胡、蒺藜。
养血——当归、白芍、酸枣仁。
Calm the nerves - schisandra, sour jujube kernels, shou wu vine.
Spleen - Poria cocos, atractylodes, boiled licorice.
Ligustrum and Lotus - nourish the liver and kidneys, nourish yin and clear heat.
Bai Wei - clear heat and cool blood.
In this way, it can be said that it is all right to relieve liver and depression, strengthen the spleen and nourish blood, clear heat and calm the nerves. And the patient's sleep disorder is naturally solved.
In fact, like Xiao Wang, there are many examples of nighttime sleep disorders caused by liver depression and spleen deficiency, lack of yin and blood, and lack of heat and internal disturbance, and bad mood during the day. Especially for middle-aged women, I recommend that you go to a Chinese medicine doctor if you have sleep problems, and if you identify this syndrome type, you can treat the syndrome.
