Similarities in mechanism

Started this discussion. Last reply by Fallen Messenger Jul 13, 2017. 7 Replies

An unintended round of self-experimentation has me wondering how similar daydreaming and regular dreaming could be in how they function. Specifically, I've noticed some curious parallels between…Continue

At the top of your profile there's that title thing, the one that says "X's Page" unless you change it. I've seen some profiles with another text box under it, with smaller text, acting like some…Continue

Event spirals

Started this discussion. Last reply by Source Apr 12, 2017. 7 Replies

Events in the last few months and most notably the last couple of weeks have had me thinking about the possibility of there being "stages" to a maladaptive daydreamer's condition over time, different…Continue

Copycat effect?

Started this discussion. Last reply by Eretaia May 24, 2016. 2 Replies

I was wondering if a consequence of having an imagination as powerful as the one we daydreamers have could, in a sense, heighten our "senses". Not the conventional physical senses, but some kind of…Continue

Source commented on Evelien's blog post 81 days without MD
"Be careful not to get caught up in fighting only the enemy you can perceive. The daydreaming is itself a symptom. Your true struggle is against whatever is causing it. If you can manage to figure out what that is and be honest about answering the…"

"Keep in mind that you might not be suffering from excessive daydreaming in and of itself, but rather from something else that pushes you to daydream as a defense mechanism. Mental health issues can be extremely misleading and complicated."

Well, it's been a good while. Years, to be precise, though you wouldn't know it to look at me.

It's so utterly soul-crushing, and yet so fascinating, to watch time pass and the details change while the foundations of one's life remain exactly the same. I've heard it said that "history never repeats, but it often rhymes", and I couldn't agree more.

Please forgive the vagueness, I know I'm going to sound overly cryptic. I'm just thinking out loud. Something has happened to me…

Merry Christmas, folks. Here's hoping we'll all get something useful out of this whole rugged dream-in dream-out effort, and that the day will come soon.

Awesome title

So, less than a week to go before 2016 kicks out. According to the internet, this has been the worst year in history. According to my country's weather forecasts, it's been the year with the hottest summer ever (they say that every year). According to my own experience, neither of those.

But experience is subjective. Different people exposed to the same event almost always internalize it in different ways. We are limited to our own point of view when it comes to first-hand experiences,…

Trouble ahead

Posted on November 17, 2016 at 1:15pm 1 Comment

As some of you could clearly tell by my ramblings in chat these last two weeks, I've been having an increasingly hard time in keeping my sanity in check. Numerous aspects that had persisted for eras are coming into harder and harder friction against reality, whether I like it or not. Streams of thought that I had somewhat managed to chain into the back of my head for years are gaining unprecedented power.

My mind is fragmented, falling to pieces, and each of those pieces is fighting…
