• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I don't know if this is the right forum to discuss this. But I need answers.
What do you associate with this? When I drink a lot of water or eat late and also sleep on my back. I have wet dreams. I hear this is biological and others says having wet dreams is demonic. I have prayed:pray: about it many times but... I become depress anythime I have some of these dreams. I can't worry but what do I do? In a fix.

For Him.:cry:

Your answer is in what you do before you go to sleep, nocturnal emissions are caused by full bladders among other things. Totally normal, and nothing to beat yourself up over.

If you don't want them and know what causes them, why not just stop what does it? "Doctor, my arm hurts when I do this" ... "Then stop doing that"
:)

In fact, some studies would suggest it might even be good for you, as it flushes out your 'system' which prevents the building up of carcinogens, reducing the risk of prostate cancer later on.

It's biological, just remember to go to the toilet right before you go to bed especially if you've just drank something. You also have wet dreams when your body produces too much sperm and it has to be emitted somehow, and if you don't touch it comes out at night.

People who tell you medical conditions or whatever are caused by demons can be dangerous

yes, it's biological, as far as I know. It's a natural thing that reduces tension. If you happen have any kind of problems with masturbation or porn, this can be one weapon to help you stay pure.

But keep in mind, it's designed to reduce tension due to sperm build-up, not due to extra sexual tension because of impurity.

I'm not saying you have a purity problem, I'm just getting this info out there just in case. It might help somebody.

Also, some of those dreams can get pretty hot and heavy. Now, I don't think you have to feel guilty about that, because as far as I know you can't really help it when it happens, but it might not exactly help your your purity long-term, so also keep in mind . . . IF someone is having a problem with porn, as they become free from that and their thinking becomes more pure, the dreams should become increasingly more pure as well.

But no, the dreams in and of themselves are not impure, no worry. Just don't get into porn and masturbation, guard your thinking, rebuke Satan, keep praying, keep your eyes on God . . . and make sure you don't start intentionally drinking water before bed! lol

If not that could be your problem and that's why your having wet dreams....I can elaborate a little more if that is the case and you want to know more....I have had this question asked to me before and have done some research....
