It's my 8th day without MD. I had a weird dream and then I tried to stop. 

Now a few days have passed. 

My brain says it wasn't that bad, you can live with it. Return to it. …

Daydreams are a way for people to locate themselves, what they value, what they desire, the feelings that make them feel good, for example, if a person often dreams about killing a dragon, it means that the feeling What they value most is courage, everyone in the world has daydreams, they dream, most of the time real life is different from dreams, but that's life, so when we move away from daydreams, we feel lost , in a world that is much more tedious, slow and uncontrollable than it seems,…

hiiii it's been a while

so lately I've been struggling with a lot of things, and then something hit me. If I didn't have MD for the majority of my life, I might've been able to achieve what I have dreamt of. Maybe if I didn't lose all those hours to it, I could've developed the social skills and intelligence to get what I wanted by now. I always dreamy of revenge of people who've hurt me, but I can't execute those plans now, I don't know I'm just writing stuff. It just hurts me to…

Hello everyone,

I discovered this site a year ago. Until then I didn't know what MD was and it shocked me to my core. I was not alone, but i didn't change anything and I ignored everything I read and continued.

A brief summary of my demon (as I call him). I am successful, respected, loved. I have a job that I don't have in real life.

I keep imagining the same situation. Everyone admires me, I'm important. The situation varies in relation to the person. It depends on who…

Long time no see everyone!!

So, my previous post was rather depressing, and I was honestly not well mentally. Now I'm much better. 

I've decided to post an update, and this post is really important to me personally as it is my anniversary on this website. It's been a year since I discovered the community of people just like me. It feels surreal, but I somehow managed to…

Hello people of Wild Minds,

Today is my mom's 10-year deathaversary. I'm 25 now, and my mom died when I was 15. I was actually on Wild Minds when she died, and I made a few blog posts about it at the time.

Anyway, since it's her 10 year deathaversary, I've been visiting some old memories. I've always been someone who's found it therapeutic to write about impactful/traumatic memories, so figured I'd write a sort-of narrative about my experiences.

July 23rd, 2014 was the…

It's impossible to make a blanket definition of creativity for every individual out there. But if I had the nerve, which I boast, then it would definitely include the word 'exposure'.

Some people claim that MD enables them to be more creative. I held that opinion once, too. The idea goes that only the state of being triggered into excessive daydreaming provides a suitable environment for your imagination to take shape.

How?

Abstract concepts and desires are lying at the…

I was thinking about one of the most recurring topics among MDers, both former and those who still suffer from it. I'm talking about the theme of being stuck too far behind in time, or moving so slowly that there is seemingly no hope to catch up with the rest of the world.

I'm no stranger to that feeling as a former MDer. However, now that I can look back at my past ordeals and judge it from a refreshed perspective, I believe that the 'rest-of-the-world-to-do-catching-up-with' was…

A lot of people felt that end with us was not that great a book but to be honest I liked it , it’s an exact depiction of what happens . I have lived like that though my father never really hit my mother they argued a lot and he has had many a times tried to hit me . I say try because some phir I have always been lucky and escaped and the whole making up after it and stuff the worst part is that same I can’t ever forgive me it’s impossible. My Maladaptive daydreaming started because of that…

Reading some blog posts on here made me realise something - my MD has set me back years. I had a distorted view of who I wanted to be through my daydreams - a violent person surrounded by drama and boys. And I realized, this is what I wanted when I was in primary school. I didn't want this to be my life when I'm out in the real world. But I was still clinging to this version of me, one with anger issues who can do whatever she wanted. 

A few months ago, I had some time without my…

Hi everyone. I promised to myself that I'll post my honest feelings, so now I've decided to write an update. I've dreamt again.

Life has been rough recently so one day I couldn't resist the urges. At first it felt like heaven. But now as I continued daydreaming it started to get worse. Now life feels unbearable again. I know that I am strong enough to start again. Even if fall again, I'll pick myself up, over and…

Parents have been telling their kids over the years that daydreaming doesn't get you ahead in the world. My parents never knew that I was a daydreamer, at least my mom didn't, and I was a very quiet kid. I was always thinking and trailing off now and then. Rather than staying in the present moment with others. I didn't tell them what's been going on in that head of mine. 



Whatsoever, when I was 12, my dreams began to get very thick and overpowering. It made me feel wonderful…

I promised that I’ll post frequently, so here I am, rewriting this whole post again, because I googled how to say ‘action movie’ in English and the text just disappeared… So just know that I had enough dedication to share my thoughts with you Σ੧(❛□❛✿)



Life has been… pretty okay honestly. Sounds so unusual to me, because then I had MD every day of my life was a living hell. Now days are mostly quiet and mundane; I go to the gym, study, eat, go to bed, go to the gym, study, go to…
