Hello. I hope you all are doing well. So… I’ve decided to try to abstain from MD for a while, but not permanently. Obviously, all of my previous attempts of abstaining have failed, even if they were…Continue

"I'm trying to stop MD, I also have Asperger's syndrome and I started to realize that I was suffering a lot in my world. I have problems with external feelings and with MD I did that and I was temporarily happy. Over time I realized that I…"
"I stopped MD, because it got a bit too scary. I have Asperger syndrome too, and it just doesn't mix with MD. It makes everybody think your a stupid jackass. I can't tell you how many embarrassing moments I faced, when just innocently…"
"Hello Marcy,
I'm ok, thanks. Being more productive today than the entire past two weeks. I'm glad to hear you are alright as well.
Sending positive thoughts, Annie"
"Hey Marcy!
How are you doing with this? I am also trying to go cold turkey again for the... gosh... 100th time? I had a particularly bad emotional breakdown a few days ago (in my MDD world) and so I am trying to channel the energy into the real…"
"It saddens me that I got so entrenched into these astonishing worlds for years, and yet it was never real and nobody ever knew about it, but me. I believed my worlds promised me happiness, love, adventure and success. What makes me so mad is that I…"
"Haha yeah, growing up people thought I was weird and creepy too, and I don’t blame them. But, honestly, I don’t care anymore. I know that MD has nothing to do with my real personality, so I don’t take it personally anymore."

Obviously, all of my previous attempts of abstaining have failed, even if they were only supposed to be temporary. However, I have always been stubbornly independent just for the pride of it when trying to deal with stuff like MD, like “I can do this myself, I don’t need support, I've always been self sufficient”, until I realized how far-fetched and untrue that is lol.So….

"I wish you the best as well!"
"Martha,
You’re amazingly accurate in what you’ve pieced together :). I can manage to reduce MDing when I’m socializing or meeting someone new, same with family. The urge is always there, I guess, but in some situations and for…"
"Hello. I'm sorry about your son's situation. I think it's very admirable that you're aware that something is wrong and are reaching out. In my experience, there's really has been no way to control or manage it, no matter how…"
"I think blacking out (daydreaming) and the criticism and embarrassing stories that come with it are just unfortunate symptoms and side-effects of whatever made us want to daydream like this in the first place. I'm sure its common for…"
"MD isn't a physical disorder (in my opinion), I believe it usually stems from unresolved issues like basic insecurities or some form of anxiety. Maybe dealing with your panic attacks with your counselor might reduce some of the MD and help you…"
