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…

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…

Dear wild minders,

while surfing the internet i found this thing called Visualization and decided to share it with everyone.

Visualization is a type of meditation which people do to get in contact with their subconscious mind to get what they want in life .They spend a long time visualizing things they want in life very vividly ,  similar to a maladaptive  daydreamer .

You can watch this video where a man is telling people how to visualize to programme the…

Hi guys!

So, I'm writing this quite late in the night and I am unable to sleep. I am an insomniac and it suprises me everyday how well i am able to cope on such little sleep. When I explained MD to my partner he suggested that continuous day dreaming and insomnia may somehow be linked? Whats your opinion on this? I am riddled and plagued by MD at the moment, I think for any addict we suffer phases where we feel we cannot cope, that there is a whirlwind that has taken over our…

i found it on the internet :D hope you like it.

MD has both ruined parts of my life and made others infinitely amazing. Because I have daydreams, as well as go to an online school, I've pretty much ostracized myself and am left with one friend I see every-so-often, and a few oldies that I chat with online sometimes. I haven't made a new "friend" in over a year, considering that I talk to so many people online. I hear people say "Go outside and make new friends!" Yeah, that would be great, if it weren't for the fact that I can hardly walk…

Hi:

I have lived with MDD for thirty years now, off and on. It started with traumatic events as a teenager and I just wanted a safe place. And I found it. For years it was my only safe place, well before it even had a name.

But, like any addictive behavior, it took over. The root of the word "addiction" is from "giving over" and I gave my life over to daydreaming and while like any addiction it seemed like a cure for my ills, over time I realized the following…
