Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
I'm someone who has been active on this website since late 2012. In my early days here, I met a lot of friends. My first and best friend I made was a man named Liam. He was most active here in late 2012 and 2013, so I doubt most people who are active now will know who he is, but he was amazing guy with a heart of gold and who had been a very good friend of mine since we met.
Early this year, something horrible happened to Liam. He found his mother and grandmother murdered in a…

I have many different dream-worlds in my head that I play with. I mainly focus on two, so today I'll start with my first and most realized "alternate reality". This is of course, a short version because I daydream in this "world" very often.

My alternate self, Amara Bouchard, was born on July 14, 1777 in Maine. Her mother, Angelique, was a servant and witch until the love of her life broke her heart, prompting her to take revenge on him and lock him away…

I'm so glad I found this site. Just like so many here, I was completely aware that others did this until recently. MDD is not well known by any means. I would love to share my story for anyone who is curious.
I'm not the type of person you would likely expect to have a disorder like this. …

The Western Union, a country that I have talked about before, mapped out for the first time in its entirety.
I have gotten so far into depth with my day dreaming that I have drawn in world maps and propaganda posters. …

This is my first blog post here so I don't know if I'll be able to stick to any particular structure but here goes.
I just wanted to sort of introduce myself but since I'm socially awkward (especially when it comes to personal details) I'd rather just jump in with what I experience. I'm seventeen so I'm still in school right now (I've just finished my AS exams) and studying for my exams have been a nightmare, especially since I'm taking Psychology (ironic huh?) which requires…

I haven't ever told a soul about how intensive my daydreaming is. My mom always comments on how I tend to stare off into space, but she has no idea that I'm just wrapped up in a complex daydreams. It feels like I'm writing movies in my brain. Sometimes, when I don't imagine a scene just right, I "put it away" and come back to it, like I'm editing a video. And yet, it doesn't seem like a movie. It's like I know my characters aren't real, but when I see people at school that I've imagined are…

I didn't know this is what I was doing when I was living this way and I didn't know what I was doing when I figured out how to stop--not stop, but suppress them, became aware of when they came and ignored them. I don't remember when it was but I realized how often I was in a different reality while physically next to me there was a person I was supposed to be experiencing life with. somehow from that thought, I worked on becoming more aware and I squashed them, I squashed all of them, all my…

Bella Woodman and her dog Buddy on a daily round of the forest.
The early days of my world is where Nature starts to take itself back: wildfires would burn down whole towns, hurricanes would level whole coastlines, city streets would flood like rivers, trees and shrubs started to grow in the cracks of the pavement, and feral packs of dogs and cats roamed the…

Samantha Agnew of the FSK in tears after what was supposed to be a fun night out with the girls.
Characters in my daydream vary from being really flat to being almost human in their nature. Over the several thousand year long timeline of my day dream, I have accumulated many hundreds of characters, each one having an important role in the formation of the…

I felt like putting down a bit of a song, then I thought "Why not post it on WM instead of just keeping it on my computer where no one will ever see it?"
So here it is. The title means "Coming of the Conqueror".

I've always had MD, and I also have an anxiety disorder (not self-diagnosed). My MD is not that bad (cause I've seen what you gusy post and I get to compare), but it still stops my life in many ways... It has been for at least 10 years (I am fifteen)... So I don't know what being ok is like, and tbh I am too scared to find out... I know I can get better, the problem is, how do I stop being so scared of what I don't know?
I mean it's silly, being afraid of a good thing. Yet, it's my…

A few months ago, my sister found a wiki page on Maladaptive Daydreaming. She showed it to me and I was shocked to find that I had pretty much had every symptom; pacing and making fantasies in my head are part of my daily routine. I didn’t really think much of it at first. It just became a part of my life over time. However, it has recently become a problem and now I’m thinking I need an outside source.
I…

So, I know from my own experience of daydreaming, that just a few of us are going to be carrying a few extra lbs, because, hey, our bodies are simply a vessel to continue our day dreams in, so why should we care? Ive gained like loads of weight being trapped in those day long daydreams where you dont do anything. I own a Tv but ive never bothered to work out how to use it, because i just stare at a wall most of the time. Or the TV when its off (the irony!) . Like when Im in the gym, I'm too…

Oh boy, where to begin...
Well I suppose I'll start with the basics.
I'm Silverfish if you haven't guessed. Silverfishes are these odd little insects that are very cute. I'm an alright person, my favorite color is yellow or green, and I like to read. I'm here like many others are here, seeking out answers or at the very least a community where I can perhaps find answers. I, however, am here for a somewhat bizarre reason. I'm here to see if I can…
