I usual get inspired by music, books and films but sometimes to get inspired i try something new like films, books or music i didnt think i would like and sometimes that would spark a new daydream. I also find that i re-run old day dreams when i dont have new inspiration.

Hope that may help and i hope things get sorted for you.

Comment by Ezke on February 9, 2011 at 5:57pm: I can relate a bit to what you're saying, lizzy. There have been times when my daydreaming has simply shut off unexpectedly. It's rare, but when it does disappear, it takes with it the ability to absorb and enjoy books, music, people, life, etc. It's as though I can't think, experience or process anything unless doing so within the daydream structure. Without that structure, my mind is lost. Not wandering --- lost.

Anyway, I wish I could offer some advice. I'm sorry to know you're going through such a tough time.
