Have 2 weeks that my ex-girlfriend finished our relationship,

a lot of times she said that i was not so affective, that i was always distant.

And i had percieved that when i was with her, my wish to daydream was stronger,

Sometimes when we travelled i could not DD at least not pacing,

so i stood more distant and a little bit nervous, All i could wish was stand alone and DD.

Even in my family most of the time i want to be alone,  

i don`t want to talk…

I came aross this thought today. Do you think DD is acting or reacting?

Because, the stories we come up with may be actions at first, but once we develop the characters and face different situations, is it still acting or does it turn into reacting (even though basically, it remains acting in a way).

Just a thought...

This is my 1st post. Pretty much all of my DD include people that have touched my life in some way. They usually involve people that are important to me or those that have passed away. My DD's are very elaborate and often dark, even apocalyptic.  If the fantasy's are not negative in nature, they usually involve my adult life. The only positive DD's I seem to have are romantic in nature and few and far between. My brain never shuts down, my memory is excellent and I remember much of anything…

I'm going to begin to blog about my MD so that maybe i can get a better grip on it. R.E. see how its affecting my life more realistically. And then kick its ass. 

I can function. I'll say that much. I have read some people say that they have no control over it whatsoever and my heart goes out. If i have to I can shut it off. My career to date has been pretty successful. I'm looked at as smart, got it together, on her way to the top etc etc. ( even thou i've recently been out…

Is philosophizing a way of daydreaming too?

I meqan, because of how it makes me feel & how I (don't) control it.

I can think of a single thing in so many different ways it's weird. The other day I even gave my sister an impression of what a certain desktop wallpaper could be. What it could show, what an artist was thinking while making it. What colours could mean. What was my favourite thing about it. That kind of stuff. An interpretation. But most of the time I think…

You know how I said that I wanted to solve all of my DD characters' problems in the hope that they would disappear? Well, it worked. Then I spent a few days not thinking about them (there was no point). And I just daydreamed about other people, (a new daydream has started and I know it'll last for months). Anyway, I hate it when this happens. My DDs last a few months and then they change.

I hate the transition between one DD and another. It's like I fight the new one. Anyway,…

I have only recently started to look into maladaptive daydreaming, which is surprising as it is something i have been doing since a very young age. I have always battled with my sense of self, perceiving my personal life goals as achieving contentment in myself so that i can experience more and give more. What shocked me profoundly is how even though I have been very aware of these daydreams all my life, the detrimental effect this has had on me is huge, and explains a lot! I feel relieved…

I think it started when I was 9 or 10. I turned 20 last August. That makes 10 or 11 years lost in fantasies since then and living a lie I created myself. That makes 50% (or more) of my life; and naturally the percentage is about to start increasing. Soon, if it isn't already.

I daydream most of the time. More excessively when I'm alone; every time before bed. I have trouble falling asleep because of that. But it wasn't always as frequent as it was in the past year. The thing is I took…

Is any one reading this series.  The heroine time travels back to Scotland in the 1700's, falls madly in love with a wonderful scotsman, returns to here& now, becomes a docter, goes back.  I'm in the 5th book, and they have traveled to New World, right before Revolutionary War.  I love the idea of time traveling, and both characters are quite compelling.

Hi!

I still don't know any of you yet. I'm new. And I was just wondering, from reading the posts... which of you are trying to quit the addiction of MD and which of you are quite happy to keep going and think it's beneficial? Or are some of you trying to keep going but make it more manageable at the same time?

I've noticed that most of us here fall into the first two categories, either trying to quit an addiction and very frustrated or love daydreaming and…

Alright, I began talking to a fellow ENFP about MDD & he replies, "Ah, I'm pretty sure I have that, my kid does to & I'm proud my son has it to.  Love it & it serves me well.  My friend suggested taking a vitamin B12 to turn it off whenever & I can just have vivid dreams in my sleep.".... Then I just blew.  I guess I needed to vent, I've never vented about it before.  I feel bad now, I just typed in 90 mph anguish, I wasn't even sure what I was…

This is crazy.... ive had tons and tons of daydreams ABOUT telling people about my MD, all of them different where i either get rejected, misunderstood, and got asked a ton of questions and felt like a freak, so i dont know why i have this strong urge to spill my deepest secret.  ANYWAYS

I think im going to tell my friend about my…

Even though MDD has always affected me negatively, to where I can barely function.  NOBODY knows what I've been going through or what I have.  I have told my best friend & my fiance a couple little things about me(the MDD side of me), but I've never implied anything or went further.  I've never told a soul about any of my MDD cause of fear.  When I was little, I used to think I was either straight jacket-crazy, or that I was mentally challenged.... sad. 

. . . . I can't believe it, I finally found what I have.  I've been researching off & on for years to find out if there was a name for what I have, if there was anybody else like me or if I was just crazy.  I finally discovered it on the internet yesterday.  I literally began crying out of relief cause every single symptom they listed couldn't fit me more perfectly.  It was just like how my mother broke down crying out of relief because they finally made people aware of OCD/shed some…

I'm friendly, brutally honest, loud, really hyper, I hav vry strict morals yet I'm crazy/eccentric, I'm devoted, aggressive, adventurous, self-sacrificing, I'm horribly clumsy, I'm esoteric, stubborn, aesthetic, & I believe in standing up 4 what's morally & ethically right. I'm ENFP borderline ISFP.   :-)



I graduated from R.G. Drage May 21st 2009. I'm beyond happy 2 B engaged. I've been w/ my fiance for 6 1/2 years, we're getting married in a few weeks. I am gonna B a…

I don't know what to do right now.  I want to know what is wrong with me.  I have spend hours in the last two months reading psychology websites, psychoanalyzing myself, and toying with the idea of seeing a psychologist.  Wednesday I finally gave up on self-diagnosis and decided to see a professional of some sort.  I thought the best place to start would be in my university’s counseling center, so I went there on Thursday to make an appointment.  I thought it would take a while to get an…

So these are the Cornish pasties I've just cooked today. I have never been to Cornwall, never eaten a Cornish pasty, nor have I ever tried to cook any sort of pie. However, many of my dd's have English characters (I'm American) and I ran into several news articles debating exactly what constitutes a proper "Cornish" pasty. So being a self repecting Brit loving MD…

i started having this disorder at a tender age of 5 years old..i dreamed that I was somebody else beautiful, gorgeous and popular that everyone else envy..i lost track of time and i am now 26 years old when I realized I still have this disorder...it is sickening...sleeping, dreaming I'm somebody else I am not...creating a beautiful fairy tale all in my head..every time I would feel bad about myself or the situation, I would lie down and daydream, and whatever stupid scenarios I created in my…

I mean, we all know how vivid daydreams can be when you're a MDer. So has anyone ever tried to write a story about it? I've tried but I must admit, I'm not very good at it. http://www.booksie.com/true_confessions/novel/charyss_cherrison/yours-cha-cha There's a link to some of the stuff I write. I include stuff about MD, too. I wonder if one day, one of us will end up publishing a book about MD. It'd…
