Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest

I just finished the Eli Somer interview.

It went well! I spent hours making notes in case I froze up, and I was very nervous, but I didn't end up needing them. He's a very nice guy, and we just talked for about 30 mins. I told him he could use my name, but it can be completely anonymous. It felt good to know that my voice is being heard by people in the psychological community. I want them to wake up and listen to us. I want them to figure out ways to help us, and I said so.

If anyone else wants to participate, he would appreciate it. He's very easy to talk to. You can email him at eli.somer@me.com

Let us know how it goes!

Comment by Cordellia Amethyste Rose on November 9, 2013 at 1:52pm: Well, it's up to you. If you're unsure about it and have questions, you can email him. I'm sure he'll be happy to answer them.

Comment by Aquarius on November 9, 2013 at 1:40pm: I want to do this, but I also want to remain anonymous. Dr. Somer is recording these Skype sessions

Comment by KwanKwan on November 7, 2013 at 3:57pm: this is a very good thing for us. now at least they can understand us better.

Comment by Cordellia Amethyste Rose on November 6, 2013 at 12:27pm: There is no transcript. We just talked over Skype, and he recorded it.

Comment by Aquarius on November 6, 2013 at 11:33am: will you be posting the transcript of the interview?

Comment by Cordellia Amethyste Rose on November 6, 2013 at 9:16am: Sorry, I forgot to mention what the interview is about. Duh. He just wants to talk to people on video about their experiences with Maladaptive Daydreaming and how it has affected them, so he can show it to people in the psychological community. This is a great opportunity to do some good, and you can remain anonymous!
