"Marcy:
Thank you so much for your thoughtful sharing. I think you were on the right track in letting uncomfortable feelings surface and actually feeling them rather than using the bypass. I hope you have support in your efforts and wish you…"
"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…"
"Also you mentioned that you have been "warring" with MD the past year. Tell me about your struggle and how you are doing in school and socially if you care to share."
"Marcy:
Thank you so much for your insight. It makes sense that self esteem is one of the main root causes. I am just grappling here trying to figure things out, but from what I can piece together in my son's situation and overlapping…"

"Wow! Thank you so much for sharing your story your very welcomed advice. This is exactly what I was hoping for. I didn't see your reply sooner than tonight.
So you shared what helped you through your youth. I'm…"
"Your sons' symptoms sound like a carbon copy of my own at that age. I was very introverted, and engaged in MD from a very young age, around 4 years old or so.
Books provided material for it, and following that when it became more available…"
"I have been daydreaming since I was 8- on and off through the years. MD can be a coping mechanism to escape the problems of real life. I would recommend the following:
1) giving him a journal. His own private journal where he can write down…"
