Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
Hello, Wild Minds Network!
I am new here. In honor of going on a fast from Tumblr and Facebook, I decided to make my first official blog post. I'm excited to get to know you all and talk with you. I've joined a few groups and I would eventually like to share some of my "scenarios" and introduce you all to my characters :) I'm sooo thrilled to have a community of people who not only understand, but who actually do this, too!! I'm 25 and I've been in denial for years that I do…

Its kinda hard to start a blog post, so I'll just skip it :) Basically, I'll just try to tell my story, mostly because I hope it can help someone.
I had MDD since I know about myself. Off course, back then I thought I was some kind of freak, since nobody knew what it was. I have tapes of my fourth birthday, shaking and daydreaming.
I know nobody knows a lot about this disorder, but I believe it started due to my bad childhood, I wont get into it, nobody wants to hear a sad…

Anyways, I first researched about this probably back…

I know most of people have been through this,daydreaming till the point you lose control.But it's like this with me,I daydream not that much,I daydream because I am bored and alone,I coped that with my study so I won't affect it and then,I noticed my classmates are better than me and I started to feel like I am not that good enough while they say I am better than them but I know I am not,I feel like I am failing,plans aren't effective and I am like a tortoise in a horse race.I gather my will…
ContinueA few days ago in my Psychology class, I felt incredibly annoyed. My professor was talking about OCD. He kept looking at me throughout it because he knew I had OCD and I think was checking to see how I was doing in case any of it bothered me or triggered me.
But it didn't. None of it was triggering me. I wasn't bothered at all. Because none of it rang true at all. If I hit a bump in the road, it won't even cross my mind that it could have been a person, and even if it did I wouldn't…

After reading a few recent blog posts, and reflecting on my own experiences, I'm convinced that MD, for at least some people, and at least in part, is due to extreme reservation around expressing your true self to others, or extreme self consciousness.
While most people have never had a problem pursuing the things and people they love, and overall expressing their deepest desires, fears, etc. from a young age, some of us for whatever reason have either never learned to do this, or…

As some of you know, my poor cat, Grendel, has needed surgery for an abscess on his tooth for months. One person donated a generous amount of money, and I've been saving but still had a long way to go. Then, a dear person who's been like a mom to me donated a bunch of money, so now I can get the surgery. The doctor who'd given me the old estimate left, so I had to get a new one, and it's a little bit more expensive, and his problem has gotten a little worse, but it's not too bad. I'll…

Lauren is humiliating me in front of a large group of people. I call her insecure. She shouts "sorry you feel that way!' She is mocking me. She says she thinks I'm incredibly lazy.
Malcolm X is my father. I am forced to choose between Christianity and Islam when I would rather not belong to any organized religion. I tell him I want to be a Latin American Studies professor. He lectures me on why I need to become an Afro American Studies professor. I tell him I've been…

I am trying to change my life but I have the problem of laziness. Real life activities are so tiring.
I had this idea in my head that I would become a fit, intellectual and spiritual person and practice music for fun (and forget my loneliness, lack of connection, depression, social awkwardness and just general failures).
But…

When I was younger I didn't worry much about MD because I thought I would grow out of it during my teenage years. But I haven't yet. I don't mean to be offensive but I see that there are people in their fifties that still haven't grown out of it and that scares me so bad. MD isn't a battle i'm willing to fight most of my life. MD has ruined so many opportunities for me and ruined friendships that its not even worth the benefits that it gives me. Its so controlling and so life influencing it…

What is MDD to me?
It is an outlet to my stress and my emotion. When I am angry, I create s scene similar to my life but the character is more in control. When I am sad, I imagine my character being sad and other characters within my story knowing it because in reality when I am sad no body knows it. MDD portray what I want and wish happen. It is the life I didn’t have, the things I want and the people I wish were around me.
I found it very useful because as a…

Where has the lustre of your eyes descended?
What do they seek in murky depths of space?
Shedding tears for an ecstasy that ended,
or the dark rose that fled without a trace?
Do apparitions on the future's veil
draw nigh with fearful pictures of dismay?
Do you distrust your fate, all wan and pale,
because you once were lost upon the way?
Look at the world and see how very few
among its millions…
