Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
hi.
the other day i bought a necklace that is an owl with glasses.
i bought it because my main character (and my favorite character)'s nickname is owl, and he wears glasses.
i love this necklace so much and i'm never taking it off for as long as i live. (okay, maybe that's a lie)
it's so weird how it has a meaning behind it and i'm the only one who knows. it's almost like an inside joke with myself, only it's not really a joke. i don't know, i just think it's…

This is an interesting article that one of my facebook friends shared with me. TBH, I didn't think any of my facebook friends read any of my posts about daydreaming, but apparently this one has. Check it out.

I cannot believe it. This site inspired me to begin to type down my DD. I am back full swing with the DDing. After a break for a couple weeks. I did want it back. I'm lost and gloomy without it. I cannot bear to not DD. I'm nowhere in the place where I could let it go. I just cannot. I will save that for another entry.
But, I just finished chapter one. I feel good committing my DD and my characters to print somewhere. My Livejournal on "private" actually. I feel like I'm saving them…

I'm sorry this is so long - I'm treating it like a journal entry. I've never posted to a site before and don't think what I write will be of any help, but just reading posts of others who suffer this has helped me immensely. When I researched this, and learned this MDD was a thing, I hit the roof. I've suffered from this for almost 20 years. Just writing this post right now feels like a gulp of fresh air, so if you're reading - I'm sorry it's long winded and rambling.
I've never…

Hi everyone, I just got home last night from a 2 week school trip to France. It was one of the best experiences of my life and I'm definitely going to go back some time in the future!
During the trip however, my daydreams seemed to dramatically increase. I think all the new places, situations and surroundings fuelled my imagination and I couldn't help but use these new experiences as inspiration for my fantasies. It was literally occurring every single second, even as I stood at the…

Hello,
Can I be honest when I say it's nice to know i'm not the only one in this crazy world who's a "day dreamer"
I found out about this website in a science magazine talking about Maladaptive daydreamers and was like, Oh my goodness, there are other people out there and there is a forum for it too!
I was shocked to say the least.
So a little about myself.
Maybe not a little since I can really go indepth…

Well, I saw my GI doc, and he finally provided some answers to what’s been going on. He said my chart was an interesting read. He thinks my liver failure was perhaps the result of a blood clot in the liver, which was perhaps the result of my surgery, or it could be a reaction to something they gave me in the hospital like the anesthesia. He’s certain it’s nothing I did or took. He’s also certain it’s a surgical complication. The only part of that I question is how I might have gotten…

Okay so I have researched and read that is takes on average, 30 days to break a habit. Since my MDD is in the stage of doing it out of habit. I have started this no MDD challenge with myself. I want to break my MDD habit by the end of October. If I don't break it, I want to at least improve on controlling it or slow down on how much I do it by at least half.
Hopefully this works and I will do an update in November to see where I' am.

I had to write an essay on the prompt "Imagination is the key to a full life". I ended up spending the rest of the exam MDing about posting this. Lucky for me, I managed to finish it and it was only a practice. Safe to say I strongly disagreed to the prompt.

I always dream about real world stuff. I use people I do know (not famous) as my characters. I will dream one thing for awhile and then I move on, but not before I have a whole story going on.....
If anyone ever needs material for a novel, I've got ém........LOL
