"Sometimes, I think I took MD way too far. It started since I was a preteen, but it should've stopped in junior high. I started laughing inappropriately at grade 8, and everybody commented on this. Putting two and two together, I realize if I…"

"I feel the same way! I want to try to improve my social skills now, but it's impossible at the moment. It's frustrating that I'm finally feeling the urge to improve my life, but now I can't do it. Haha.
I'm 23 :)"
"Yeah, it's hard to say during COVID-19 when I'll be back on my feet socializing again. So it's unexpected how others are going to react when I show up on scene. My social skills are quite bad.
How old you, by the way? I'm…"
"I'm feeling the exact same way right now, like I've wasted my life for nothing. It's a devastating feeling, isn't it? We really did shoot ourselves in the foot. And yet I still daydream knowing that MD will never improve my life.…"
"It took me five years to quit. I was basically told that my MD won't make life work out. I felt like I wasted all those years pacing, pondering, and dreaming for completely nothing. Perhaps, I didn't get the idea of how social interaction…"
"It's awesome that you're seeking a relationship. That gives me some hope for my future. As a fellow lonely and quiet person, I understand how judgmental and rude people can be at times. But they don't understand our lives. Truthfully,…"
"Yeah, I used to have crushes on my characters, but now I'm focused on seeking a relationship with a real person. I've never been romantically involved or active, so I sometimes use my dreams to gratify myself. Lots of people have made fun…"
"Aww! Gee, thank you so much! I'm very flattered. I've never thought of myself as pretty, and I've never had any kind of romantic relationship. I'm sure it's because I've been in love with my main daydream character for,…"
"I saw your picture, you look so great. I can't believe you had trouble with relationships.
It doesn't matter how you look, it's what DO that matters and how it shapes your life. "
"If you click a person's profile pic in this discussion, it'll bring you to their profile. On the left margin, there's an "Add As Friend" option, and it sends a request to that person."
"I'm not sure how either, but I'll mess around with it and see if I can figure it out!"
"Can you add me as a friend? Send a request? I don't know how. "
"I understand so deeply how you're feeling. After MDing for most of my life, I'm looking around at my peers, watching them get married, have children, begin their careers, and I'm realizing I have none of this because of how much time…"
"Yeah, it makes me mad how vivid it looks, but it's not reality. I should've known so many years ago. It effected where my life is to day. I'm still kind of shocked. "
"I know what you mean, Ricky. It's impossible to explain how vivid it all is. It definitely feels like I'm living two lives. "
"Hi Sarah!
So glad you're here! I'm 23 years old and I've also been a maladaptive daydreamer since I was very young. Please message me anytime you like. It would be great to support each other :)"
