<p> I think it was my intention to actually bring my daydreams to life that makes it difficult to tell if it was MD or not. Though, I did start daydreaming excessively before all of that happened, when I was 11 years old just about. This is something I did not mention in the description. If you haven't read in my other posts, I did explain that at one point during my MD phase that I wanted to actually make my fantasies happen. I didn't know how, and my fantasies were no where realistic. But you…</p>

If you haven't read in my other posts, I did explain that at one point during my MD phase that I wanted to actually make my fantasies happen. I didn't know how, and my fantasies were no where realistic. But you know, when you're addicted to something, you're at least a little bit blind from the truth. And as I sunk deeper and deeper into my daydreams and believing they were going to come true somehow, I began to lose my sights on the 'normal' view of reality.

Like the previous poster, I don't believe MDD can develop into psychosise though I am sure people with severe mental illnesses and personality disorders can have a very rich fantasy life. MDD is different from that though.</p>

<p> You could be right. During that time, I wasn't officially diagnosed with it because they couldn't figure out what was wrong with me (I didn't tell them about the daydreams because I didn't know it was called MD back then) and that it was the source to me anxiety attacks, so they just prescribed me with anxiety medication. The anxiety was coming from a specific person (as mentioned in the description) and I nor anyone knew why. All I knew was that I had an extreme fear of her, and that in my…</p>

All I knew was that I had an extreme fear of her, and that in my daydreams she was my friend. I guess I just sunk so deep in it that I let some of my fears grow, and I was used to living in my own world, which made it hard for me to adapt to the real world.<br/> <br/> <cite>M Hunter said:</cite></p>
