<p>My issue turned out to be ADHD-Inattentive. Anxiety disorder, depression, and a long list of other problems with diagnoses clouded the underlying reason. Almost everybody with ADHD develops General Anxiety disorder, to greater or lesser degree.</p>
<p>Like Paul said above, though, people over the internet can't diagnose someone. Not even a professional could diagnose you over the internet -- it needs to be in person.</p>

<p>It sounds like you have some complex issues going on that go well beyond MDD. If you want a diagnosis I don't think that the members here are really qualified to do that. You would be better served to seek a professional in the psychology field. Treatment for MD really should not be your priority, as it sounds like the daydreaming is actually helping you to deal with the other issues. If you suspect you have GAD then that is what you should be looking into treating, not MDD. </p>
