Salutations, people! I just got onto this site today, and so I'll make a post about myself, I suppose. So heres a brief introduction. I am...well, I would say eccentric, but that is the biggest understatement of the century. I daydream. A lot. I am assuming that everyone else here does too. But it's been weird for me since I started high school.

Now, let me clarify. My high school is a living hell. And one day after a stressful day at school, I felt awful. Not necessarily physically, but… Continue

Hi, everyone.  I'm new here.  I'm 55, and two days ago I realized that I've been an addictive daydreamer as long as I can remember.  I'm an ACOA, and the MD probably started as a response to my family environment, but people have been calling me on it (in one way or another) since the beginning, and it's definitely caused me some problems with interpersonal relationships.
