Yalda Hakim, host of Impact on BBC World News interviews a person with maladaptive daydreaming and talks with Prof. Eli Somer, a psychologist who studies this psychological problem
Watching this video, I was able to draw many parallels between the experience of the person being interviewed and my personal one. The number one trigger by far for daydreaming in my life has been a dissatisfaction with my real life—and especially a losing of the sense that I can control the quality and direction of my life. I feel so behind in my obligations in real life and disappointed that I have been letting daily disciplines slip. However, I won't get discouraged. There is hope, I just need to take things one step at a time and realize how to take charge of my life more than ever before.
