Does anybody here Maladaptive daydream?
It's where you spend intense periods of time daydreaming and fantasizing about realtime stories that involve you as a first-person character. I have been doing this as long as I can remember, and now it's beginning to become an addiction.
I have an entire world in my head, the characters are moving about as of now, doing their daily work as I would be realistically if I were them. When I go into my mind whenever I'm in daydream mode, as I call it, it feels like I'm actually there. I can get sucked in, where I don't hear any outside noise, and I mouth what I am saying inside my daydream. Is this beyond dreaming? and I was reading this can be a leading sign into mental health problems. I have a lot of problems, and I admit to being very anti-social and I use Maladaptive daydreaming as my coping mechanism.
Comments? and it would be helpful to relate to somebody who daydreams as much as I do. I spend about 5-6 hours a day daydreaming, and 1-2 hours before bed and then I fall asleep, and adventure into my dream world. It feels like reality is drifting, and my life is more involved with the characters and concepts of my daydreaming, so that's the problem here.
