Kalliope commented on Yukia's blog post Biggest challenges quitting MD"Fantastic!! Thank you, nice read."
Kalliope replied to Laura N's discussion Sorry to intrude - question for MD'ers"Yes, I concur 100% with Yukia. Nothing in this blurb sounds like MD would be the reason. Yukia very, very well described it, it's the smoke, not the fire, and the fire is some trauma or stress. The first thing that sprang to my mind is…"
Kalliope replied to Elaine's discussion Gone Fishin"Indeed, I concur with Valeria. It's so lovely she keeps this website floating.
Have a look at Eretaia's posts, for example - age-old, with dozens of discussions and comments attached.
Also, I like this format much more than social media,…"
Kalliope replied to Eretaia's discussion Yes, you can cure Maladaptive Daydreaming"Yes! It will go away. You will see that you will have many blockades and resistances that will hinder you in what you need to do to get rid of MD. For example, I've been on a path to reducing procrastination ... and trying to reduce it is much…"

A very un-seasonal poem from late January this year - wanted to share

In the breeze of spring
I am whole

Strewn across places I cannot walk to.
Music About MD - Found One!

Hi peeps!!
I think I found an EDM song from an artist who might have/understand MD!
"I get lost in the story
Forgetting my own
From daydream to daydream
Into the unknown."
IMHO it's a great song that captures the sweeping sensation of MD excellently :)
