hey. thanks for the welcome. I'm still trying to figure this site out, but MD sounds like it fits so well. (Jacob isn't even my real name--he's a fictional character...I've gone so far as narrating a novel with him...) I swear I'm running scenarios in my head almost constantly...
"I'mlike an alcoholic with an unlimited supply of booze everywhere I go. When I do it too much I feel sick and dazed, yet I can't stop. I've stepped out into traffic and almost
gotten myself killed more times than I can count."
I really liked this quote of yours in your article: "Out of my mind".
First two lines summarise condition of Daydreamers very well.
Thank you for starting and maintaining this network. My jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw it. I couldn't believe that I wasn't the only one. I can finally put a name to what I've been hiding all these years.
Thank you for creating this site. All my life I have struggled with OCD, anxiety, depression, and other ailments. I have daydreamed several hours a day for as long as I can remember. My parents have mistaken my actions during daydreaming as tics typical or Terotts Syndrome and have thought I have had a tic disorder for many years. I researched daydreaming and found out about MD. This site makes me feel so much closer to the world.
So is this actually aye real disorder ? I catch myself acting out stuff n da bathroom, it happens when I listen to music , n I cnt help it, I cnt go to sleep without doing a little day dream , should I try to tell my mom n dad cuz I just found out what I have, I thought I was crazy but nw I c, I thought the devil was pulling me away from god but now I c
Thank u so much, I dnt think mine is 2 bad cuz I have friends I'm not shy, I just choose to go day dream n do nothin else, my friends always wana chill but I make up lies, I tend to go to school have aye nice day n when I get home I act it out aye different way I should have handle it, but one time it got so out of control that I made this fake profile n everybody thought this person was really n I kept sayin it was my cousin but it was really me, n right now I have gotten into relationships over the Internet cuz of my day dream, I'm afriad to tell people why I did that but I just lie n say it wasn't me smh I need help
oh thanks! yea im sooo glad i found this because i seriously thought i was alone and have , for years been looking for a name for what ive been doing and i didnt realize so many other people have done this....ive been doing this for you can say half my life but just found out more about this only a few months ago...i hope i can get better or help someone else also , thanks again
Thank you for the welcome. I really want to do something about this, bring awareness somehow, because I really want treatments to be available, and more information on causes.
Thankyou for setting this site up. Iv only just discovered MD. Iv had it for over 15 years but just thought I was strange. It's great to be able to read other people's experiences and learn that I am not alone in this. Thanks

I'm very happy to find your blog. Yesterday I was reading an italian psychologies magazine and when I read about you, I thought I had found"Peolple of my species". Thanks!
Thanks for your "welcome", and I appreciate your reply to my question. Like others have said, "thank you so much for setting up this site". It is so great reading everyone's questions and comments. It helps me to learn more and more about MD. It's wonderful knowing that I am not alone in thinking and behaving the way that I have all these years.
Hi, I will have a lot more to share down the road. The stories shared here are all too familiar . . . it is so wonderful to not be alone. It is something I have not shared with friends. Here I can without being judged among other possible reactions. LOL.
Thank you so much! This place already gives me great vibes. I have been suffering from this almost my whole life. I never actually knew it was an illness, actually until tonight, finding it out and diagnosing myself. It makes me feel comforted knowing it isn't just me who suffers with this, and i am not alone.
Thank you! It is incredible 30 years with this issue, and i just discovered that i am not the only one, great job. Even doctors don't have information about this illness.
Hi and thanks :) I've been drifting in and out of cloud cuckoo land pretty much constantly since I was 8, and I'm now 22. I'm glad I found this site, before today I knew I was odd but I never wanted to think about it too much. Good to know that there are others out there!
Thank you for welcoming me :) It's so nice to have a place like this where I can feel safe about my day dreaming. I've been doing it as long as I can remember, While I do have it pretty much under control it can still get in the way and I also wish to help others. once again thank you so much for doing all of this, it means alot! :)
Thank you, So much, Just for having the courage to come out with your problems and in time make this site to join us all together. Just to know that there are others like me, so many in fact that it has a name, lifts alot of my lonellieness and shame right off my shoulders.
Hi Cordellia, glad I joined also. I realize this condition presents a supreme challenge. I'm here to listen, learn and be of support. Thank you for stepping up and being part of the solution. I celebrate your courage and caring spirit.

Thanks for creating this spot. I love the feeling of not being the only one who does this daydreaming. I found out about the site yesterday and I'm so excited to be reading what others wrote. Just reading the comments below makes me happy. And I like the name too, Wild Minds!
Thank! I can't believe that there is actually other people who have the same thing as me! I'm no longer alone :) Let me start off about my mal daydreaming by saying that it has gotten to the point where i find myself acting out stuff in my mind while walking down the road or making weird noises, oh and I'm also 21 and have had it as far as i can remember
Thank you so much for creating this website :) Im sure you have heard this a thousand times before but only through this website have I realised that I am not alone.This site has given me the courage to speak out and to seek help for my MD.What an amazing thing you have created & what an amazing feeling you must get knowing you are helping so many people.I wish there was more people like you out there in the world.
Thank you for all the work you put into this forum!
I have been reading for quite a while and also took part in the email study. We have both a gift and a curse, I hope together we can find a way to bring out the positive aspects and control the frightening ones.
Thank you for the welcome. I am happy to find a community who understands what I have experienced for most of my life. I am looking forward to reading more and being a member.
Thank you so much for creating this website. I'm sure you have heard it before, but this website has made me realize that I am not alone. This site gives me the chance to speak with the only people who understand about MD, and to get help for it . It's an amazing thing you have done by creating this site. Although I don't know you personally(yet), I'd like you to know you are helping so many people. I for one am already deeply appreciative of you doing this.
