Recently I feel so confused and lost. I recently no longer talk to a few of my good friends, and I just graduated college. I am in a transitional phase in my life and I feel so alone. I do not have that balance of close friends to hang out with and talk to, so lately I have been using daydreaming as such a crutch. I like my dream world more than my life now and I am lost at how to fix that. I wanted to lessen my daydreaming time, but it is almost impossible to not use is as a coping method when you feel so alone.

Hi there. :)
I just graduated College last year, too. And, like you, I've experienced the difficulties of transition. It was really stressful for me because I'm an introvert person and I only have few friends. That's why after graduating, I think I went into a little depression. I had a job to keep me busy but it was not in line with my profession. I had lived alone and was away from my family. I can't remember much of what I have dreamed but I think at that time, my daydreaming got worse along with my depression. I became anhedonic, losing pleasure in doing the usual things that I enjoyed. I thought if I continue like this, I might lose myself...
so I resigned from my job. I went home to my family. I had a volunteer work that was along my profession. It kept me really busy and I enjoyed it at the same time. Being with my family was also a great help. I still have the daydreams from time to time but I have made it more productive by writing it into online novels. I also contact my friends when I get time, it would also help. Good luck! :)
