I NEED My Dreams to Be a Reality

First of all, I just want to say thank you so much to Ms. Cordellia Rose for this lovely website. It helps me so much to have a safe outlet to come to and share my thoughts, feelings, concerns, etc., since my family members, boyfriend, and even therapist are completely in the dark about MDD.

I am Jennifer, a 21 year old college student who struggles with MDD. I daydream at least 3 times a week, and it is always…

Is Anyone Else Depressed After Daydreaming?

Hi everyone,

I'm Jennifer and am 20 years old. I must have joined this site when I was about 14-15 years old and have not visited it in a few years. I am glad to see it is still here.

I used to daydream every single night. I started a plot with characters when I was about 8 years old...I am almost 21 now and am still using the same story line and characters.…

Character Withdrawal?

Hello everyone,

My gosh. It must be nearly a year since I've logged onto here. I have been unbelievably busy. Sorry for my absence, I really miss it here! I am Jennifer, am 17 years-old, and am a senior in high school, for those of you who haven't met me before. :) And I have a question for you all: Are you romantically involved with someone in your daydream world? (Whether this person is completely made up by you or is based off of a real person that you are actually falling for). In my… Continue

Using Bitstrips to Create Cartoon Versions of Characters and Scenes of my Daydreams

Hi everyone,

I am Jennifer and I am 16 years old. I have been part of this site for two years now, and I thought I would share with you something I thought was really cool: I use Bitstrips to create cartoonized versions of my characters and to create important scenes of my daydreams. I cartoonized all of my characters as I imagined them, and they turned out…

Just Can't Picture Things Vividly!! D:

Does anyone have a difficult time picturing their characters or their settings? I have a photograph of a female's face, but I just cant picture the face in the photos on my character's body...I can't even fully picture her body, haha! And, I know her house is on the beach, but I just can't picture the appearance of the house. D: Anyone else have this problem? Honestly, I act out my daydreams a lot of the time, so vividly seeing them is hard sometimes! It is frustrating, but I do not think I am… Continue

I'm Not a Newcomer, But Have a Lot of Questions

Hello everyone,

My name is Jennifer, and I am 16 Years old. I joined this site when I was 14, and I've known about MD since then, and have been living with it for 8 years now. Needless to say, I do not have questions because I am still discovering things about MD, but because I am wondering if I am the only one who does these things. Please, please, PLEASE help me by answering my few questions! I would LOVE to know if I am doing these things alone.

1) Do you find that you… Continue

Thank You

I just want to say that I appreciate all of you being so supportive about MD. I feel like anyone on this site can post anything without getting attacked, harassed, or made fun of about what they said or admitted. This is the place I am able to freely open up to when it comes to me and my personal struggles with MD and even my personal life. Thank you for being the people I can talk to, because sure can't talk to my parents, or any other members of family, or friends without being laughed at or… Continue

Driving And MD

Hi fellow MDers,

My name is Jennifer, and I am 16 years old. I am a Junior in high school this year, and I just got my Learner's Permit about 2 months ago and passed driving school shortly after receiving the permit. I have to do this thing where the driving teachers have to take me out driving three times, 2 hours each. (3 times total) before I'm eligible to get my license. And, today, I was out driving for my second time with a new teacher, and I could NOT stop zoning out. My gosh!… Continue

Anger Management and MD?

Hi,

My name is Jennifer, and I am now sixteen years old. Lately, a strand of things have been happening, causing me to feel all of this intense anger inside, and sometimes I'll lash out and do or say things that are not like me because of this anger. Now, I don't know if it's possible that I may have an anger management issue, but haven't been experiencing symptoms of it until now, or if it's just me reacting to everything that has been going on lately. But, it just seems like… Continue

Idealized Versions of Yourself

Nearly all of us who suffer from MD had an Ideal Me. I know I do. But, I was just thinking about this, and I started to think that, what if our Ideal Me's are just the other side of yourself that you're too shy to express in person? (Personality-wise, I mean. Not appearance-wise). I've read a lot of things on this site saying things like, "Oh, my Ideal Me is outgoing, fun, loving, and loud! But, I'm just boring and I cut people out of my life." Friends, what if your Idealized versions of… Continue

I've liked him for a while, and he suddenly asked me out. :') Anywayssss. I feel like my happiness has caused me to not daydream. I haven't daydreamed in a week, and… Continue

Emptiness Inside

Hello, everyone.

It's me again. I know I've been commenting and posting often recently, and I apologize for that. I know it must be annoying. But, today I have finally gotten up the courage to try and discuss something. I need help. There...I said it. I need help. I have just had this constant feeling of emptiness inside lately. A pit in my stomach, and a feeling of 'You're not worth it.

Allow me to explain. My daydreams very widely revolve around this couple. Elizabeth and Max and… Continue

Fake Facebook Profiles

Hello, fellow MDers!

I'm going to start by introducing myself for those of you who are knew to this site. My name is Jennifer, I'm currently 15 years old, and I joined this site during the November of 2011 after finding out I had MD.

What I want to post about is my "creation" of fake Facebook profiles. I just took the time out of the day to make two fake profiles on Facebook. They're profiles for my main characters, Elizabeth and Max. I put where they work, the fantasy…

"The Asylum"

Hello there, everyone.

I am Jennifer, and I am 15 years old, (for those of you who are new) and I would like to share a poem I wrote about living with MD. I don't know if you'll be able to relate to this because it's pretty much based on personal, inner feelings about my case of MD, and how it feels to know I live with something considered a mental disorder. This…

Has this Ever Happened to Any of You, Or is it Just Me?

Hello fellow MDers,

Two weeks ago, I was in my basement daydreaming, and it was about 11:00 at night. (On a Friday). And I realized I was falling asleep on the…

My Strange Addiction?

Hello everyone,

Have you all heard of that show called My Strange Addiction? It's this weird documentary, on channel TLC, about real people who have strange addictions, or just strange behavior that they repeat.

And I know another season of this is coming up, and I thought 'Well, maybe...Just maybe I could sign up for it and describe my…
