Whispers from the wispy fountains,

lieing forever with the youth fountain.

Dreaming of a different world.

It's quite absurd,

to spend my time,

filling a poem with rhymes

about dreams.

Because my mind is not what it seems.

It's filled with characters

pushing between barriers,

of fantasy and real.

During the day I find myself once again, reeled

into a daydream,which I can't run this…

It's not that I don't like her music - I love her music. It's just it's seriously interrupting part one of my novel and if I am going to do this thing, compulsive daydreaming that is, I am sure as hell going to get something productive out of it in the process like learning to write fiction.

On the other hand Adele will be artist of choice as soon as I hit part two.

I've had a surprisingly lovely day today. Lots of baby cuddles and kiddy fun. Even though I'm an adult, kids are great to be around and I like to become one of them when we're together! (:

I don't have children myself, so it's nice to be with someone elses for a while. My friends' 6 week old little girl fell asleep in my arms and I really loved that. What a great birthday hey. And I'm thankful.

So I haven't checked in for some time now.... I guess I've been pretty busy. But maybe not so busy.. I don't know. I'm living back at home now. Still daydreaming. No job. No school. I do babysit quite frequently for some broken family in the neighboring town. And I've been very active within my church. But that's all. I've been reading reading a lot of manga recently. It's been making me daydream even more. I try to stay away from home as much as possible, if I'm out with friends then I…

Someone wise posted this today on her Facebook page and I am going to share it with all of you

THE PAST SHOULD BE LEFT IN THE PAST, OTHERWISE IT CAN DESTROY YOUR FUTURE

LIVE LIFE FOR WHAT TOMORROW HAS TO OFFER, NOT FROM WHAT YESTERDAY HAS TAKEN AWAY

Don't mind if I have no energy to get up and do things today. I can stay in bed and live through my favourite DD's. So I'm giving in today. But does it really matter?

I've spent most of the weekend with people (in real life) and it's exhausting. I couldn't wait to get home to my favourite people! But it is sad that they are only in my head. They are the only ones who make me feel good about myself.

Saw my counsellor last week and told her my secret about DDing. It was really…

Okay so I haven't written any poetry in a while about MD so I figured I would today.

Daydream away

listen to what the voices say.

"Dream more,little girl,

of diamonds and white pearls.

Don't leave this place.

I can see it in your face,

you want to stay

here all day."

I run from them

as they dim

my senses of real life.

Addicted like self-harmers and their knifes.

I'm not crazy.

Just stuck…

i'm aware that there is still much more to find out about how many people there are out there in the world who have maladaptive daydreaming, but for now i'm going to assume that the ratio of non-daydreamers to daydreamers is very different (as in theres wayyy more people who don't have maladaptive daydreaming)

anyway, my thought was this, what if it was the other way round? if it was 'socially acceptable' and 'normal' all over the world, to have these daydreams? and because people…

Hi, I'm Emily. Today's my birthday and it's my turn to finally introduce myself.

A month or so ago I found out about MD; I stalk Yahoo Answers mental health page when I can't sleep. I stumbled across someone saying they had a daydreaming problem. After reading a few answers I was on my way, frantically searching the internet for any piece of information I could on the disorder. Not long after, I found this.

It was in second grade. I remember this old show,…

Amazing Grace sung at the Colsseum.

Well as most of you probably noticed I haven't been on in a while. I have been really busy with work and was exhausted last week, and this week I realize why I was starting to feel run down. Its because I have a kidney stone (no fun). I have felt extremely crappy the past two days. I am back at work today and starting to feel better just kind of weak. I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's (if you celebrate it)! B came over with a card and a new movie for us to cuddle up and watch :) so…

I'm just wondering about everyone's religion, don't feel obligated to share, just curious if it has any impact on daydreaming and your lives. I was raised Christian but for awhile I struggled with my belief and definitely lost it for awhile. However, this last year has strengthened my faith and I've realized actual reasons why I believe, not just believing because it's how I was raised. It's been interesting, trying to regain it, and it's a journey that I don't intend to take…

WARNING: LONG ENTRY IS LONG. I DON'T KNOW WHY I WROTE SO MUCH. AND I'M NOT YELLING AT YOU, I JUST REALLY LIKE ALL CAPS. 

I've decided to start blogging/logging about the progress of stopping my MD. 

None of you obviously have to read this, but I figured since this was a community of people with MD, it seemed appropriate to dump my brain here. 

It's basically to help me figure out when and why I MD and how I can stop it in the…

So tomorrow I will be preforming a solo called The Lonely Birch Tree https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPdAD1J494U . Wish me luck by the way. Anyways I have bad stage fright if I'm preforming by myself, so I was trying to come up with a way to sort of conquer it. I pretended I was in a fancy dress and was preforming for my dd characters. I even pretended to have an announcer announce my solo and everything. The "crowd was cheering and…

Hey, everyone!

I'm back, Haha. :) Inmy last blog I explained why I wanted to suddenly stop daydreaming...And it's been working. It has  been two weeks since I have daydreamed, and it will be three if I can make it until monday! I'm so happy, haha! MD has been taking over my life, and now it's almost gone.

I just wanted to share a tip for all of you who have MD and really want to stop/lessen the amount you do it. I write the story of my daydreams. Like a novel. I make a…

I haven't picked up a script in years but I am proud of myself for contacting our local theatre company today. I had a chat to a guy about volunteering my time backstage until I get my confidence back. So I'm meeting up with a few people over the weekend about the upcoming production. How cool is that! And quite an easy step.

I love performing, although I'm not sure if I can learn lines the way I used to. Has anyone else done theatre performance before? You can be creative up to a…

From a lonely childhood and words left unsaid

It began late at night as I lay snug in my bed

So quietly creeping, you slipped by me unseen

Or did I invite you here, you imaginary fiend

A whole new life I created just for me

A great place that was mine and just let me be

A family, many kids with Mommy and Dad

Felt more complete than what I already had

A real best friend or maybe I’ll add a few

Who loved me for me and what I loved too

To…

I like to draw and i am a good drawer.... well thats what the others say anyway. Drawing is one of my main hobbies which is one of a few things i do other than daydream. But i have stopped lately because i have a friend who is a AMAZING  drawer. I am jealous of her and i don't care that much that she is way better than me but it must affect me more than i think because i have been thinking, 'Why should i draw she is better than me anyway'. I feel so sad, before i came to high school i was…

I have no idea what i am trying to say and my thoughts will most likely change. All i know is that i am having a hard time with my MDD.

Lately i have been thinking whats the point of living? Whats the point of anything? I know it makes me sound emo or depressed but the strange thing is that i am not and i am normally happy but yet i think these things.

Over the holidays my MDD has gotten worse and i am not proud. I try to stop and do other activities instead but i just don't…

The Doctor and Rose just separated! (Dr Who) On national TV in Australia tonight. How sad. I've seen the episode before, but it's still very sad. But you see, I can continue to watch past episodes over and over again, until I'm sick of it. Remind you of something familiar? Yeah, I'm passionate about lots of things. Some real, most...not.

Is it a dependence on emotions? That keep us DDing? It is nice to feel things and be in control of a situation. And I guess life isn't always like…
