<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I just found out about this place as well and I also thought I was really weird for having this problem. I convinced myself that is was irrational and a child's problem to get attached to these fantasy worlds that I would create based off of movies or books but now I know that it is an actual thing and i;m not crazy. You are not alone :)</span></p>

<p>Yes, I can kind of control it when I want to, but at times its a little tough. Put it this way, almost no one around me knows I have it unless I tell them. The most they say is that I'm absent-minded, or I lose things. The strain has gotten less as I've gotten older. It's like someone who overeats. If I'm in public I can put the food down so no one looks at me, but I pick it back up as soon as I'm alone.</p>
<p>Your friend may have a stronger case that I do. The only thing I have found that…</p>

<p>Your friend may have a stronger case that I do. The only thing I have found that helps is meditation, after a few days of meditation my MD drops really low. I've seen other people on the site say that they were prescribed things that helped them get control. But I don't know anything about that.</p>
<p>Oh! And I have had problems controlling it when I was younger in the case of extremely negative emotion. like being totally embarrassed, or sometimes when I smoked weed.</p>

Are you able to stop the dreams if you want to?<br />
My friend told me he can't stop and on our annual trip he was talking away worse than a year before. Some of the things said under his breath did not sound nice.<br />
He slept well though.<br />
He wants help but doesnt know what to do.

<p>Samesies...I just put that in a post a wrote. I was in tears writing it. As I've gotten older and more comfortable I've revealed things to friends...they could sympathize, but it's still embarrassing. I still don't want to FULLY talk it out. And I don't feel understood. So it's a relief to see people who reflect my story. I hope I can help others with my comments also.</p>
