So, I found this site via the Yahoo news article, as it appears a lot of other new members here have.  I'm 26 years old and I've had my alternate storyline for as long as I can remember. I see my other world as a place to play-out relationships and events that I've not had the opportunity to experience in reality. In my "story", I'm thinner, prettier and more successful (specifically a famous musician/actress *blush*).  My relationships are almost exclusively with real people (other celebrities, mostly. I only have a select few characters of my own creation - namely siblings as I'm an only child and created brothers and sisters to entertain me when I was young). I go through my day as though my real life is a reality TV show or a movie with myself playing my part along with my imagined friends and costars/boyfriend. Delusions of grandeur, a bit I suppose. 

It feels a tad awkward to be so forthcoming with this; I've never spoken about it to anyone. I usually just keep it all in my head and go about my business, but I found this site and realized that I'm not alone in this and that makes me feel like maybe I'm not such a freak. I don't want to stop my DD right now, though. I rather like it; it's kind of the only sense of self-esteem or confidence I have. Almost like, if I didn't have these friends, romances and fans living in my head to support me, I'd be empty and just invisible, because that's what I am in reality - invisible. 

Anyone else a DD-celebrity?

I used to be a DD celebrity when I was younger.  I've created so many characters through the years.  I tend to get bored with them after a few months, so I create new people.  Also, I have different people to be depending on how I'm feeling.  Sometimes, I've even stopped MDing for months or even a year or too.  I don't miss it when I'm not doing it, but it always comes back.  Lately, it's been somewhat hard to control.  My real life has gotten pretty boring, so I prefer my fantasy one(s.)  

almost always a celebrity

In one of my storylines i'm a very famous singer and I dated other real celebrities and right now i'm actually dating one. I spent so many time creating my albums, my tour and everything. One thing that happened today is that one of the songs that i consider "mine" was playing on the radio and then my sister changed the station and i took it very personally. I can relate so much with everything that you said omg

I occasionally am a celebrity, like in a movie that I'm watching...and back in high school, I was a quarterback for a professional football team...but mostly, I'm a better me dealing with work and relationships in an optimal environment....working through "real life" issues over and over again my daydreams.  Sometimes, I end up dealing with the actual situations the way I work it out in my dreams, but a lot of the time I don't...because if I did, I don't think my coworkers would appreciate what I would say to them, lol.

excusivly celebrity.
