Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest

Random Questions

I keep having random questions that I'm not sure will necessarily fit in anywhere. How about lumping them here? I'll start.

My current fantasy world has been around for about 20 years, and I still relive scenarios as old as 17 years. Weird, right? How long do you relive your scenarios? Ever relive some from waaaaaay far back like that? I can never remember them exactly, so they change as I grow, but overall it's the exact same thing that gets relived. Anyone else have a take on this?

I am always changing my fantasies. Usually to get rid of a fantasy I will just write it down as a story and it will disappear but then, the storyline will resurface. For example, If in one day dream I was fantasing about being a timid shy girl in the Victorian era, I might write a story using that. Then a new day dream will start where I am living in modern day society but I will be a shy timid woman once again LOL! The only fantasy I have with is the same which has stuck with me since childhood is when I fell in love with a Cartoon cahracter as a child and every now and again I will imagine, being the love intreast of that character. I never have any sensory sensations during or after my day dreamings and no negative after effects really except that, someone might have seen me day dreaming in the streets or, the amount of time I have used to day dream. Like if I have spent half the day day dreaming when I need to do stuff.
