Welcome, Joy!  Thanks for joining!

Joy, we're not saying that daydreaming is bad.  For some reason, this is a persistent debate, and I don't really see why it has to be.  I tell everyone that daydreaming is initially a good thing. We think more than normal, and I know a lot of people who can stand to think a bit more.  I reject the idea that daydreaming is bad, even when it becomes maladaptive.  However, I started this site because for a lot of people it can get out of control.  Those people have a right to ask for help.  A lot of people on here are really struggling with it.  I encourage them to write about their ups and downs, and they find it very cathartic.  People on here are really great about supporting each other, and that can feel good when you're struggling.  EVERYONE is welcome.  Just because people are speaking up though doesn't mean they're putting it down.  They're expressing what they're going through.  Many on here embrace daydreaming and its creative aspects.  There's even a group just for that.  I encourage you to share your side and your experiences.  Maybe you can live the best of both worlds.  Maybe you can even help some who are struggling.
