Today, Septemnber 7th, is a date i always refer back to when reflecting on my life. Ive spent all of my life with MDD. But once i started middle school in 2004, thats when my DDing took a drastic turn. Thats when it became uncontrollable. It was definetly a coming of time in my life. But i feel as if my MDD stunted my growth. I cannot seem to let go of my past. Having MDD feels like having a time machine. I can go back and fix certain things and picture how my life wouldve been different.…

I made a plan to stop daydreaming all together once school started this fall. I was going to focus on my education and get a job. My plan was a complete fail. I've been pretty stressed out since summer ended and now I'm daydreaming even more. Daydreaming wouldn't be so bad if it didn't use up all my free time and get in the way of my responsibilities. I just feel so bummed out at this point.

What world prefer, the "reality" or the fantasy?

This post was posted on  my blog on blogger, but I feel like I should cross post it here. I've read a lot of Maladaptive Daydreaming blogs on the internet, and it seems like most people have a two step recovery plan:

1. Stop themselves from daydreaming from moment to moment
2. Fix the root cause of the daydreaming, usually by forming or developing their…

I just got back into the hospital.  I could have died, yet they still don't know what happened.  I remember being in bed and being out of it.  At some point, I realized I'd been in bed for a day and texted that to Michael.  I was freaked out but too out of it to do anything.  I fed the kitties and went back to bed.

Then, I think it was the next day, I was sleeping and got a knock on my door.  It was my friend, Michael, and my apartment manager, Roz.  They looked like they'd…

 Does anybody else do this? I daydream SO much before I go to bed, its literally insane! I toss and turn in my bed but my mind is somewhere else, I can't go to sleep! I try to shut my eyes and just forget about it but you know that rush of excitement you get from daydreaming that just shakes your nerves? My head is somewhere else while all I want is to be in bed! I stay up late just tossing and turning, daydreaming my sleep away!

Hey everyone,

It's been a while since I came on here and posted. I'm kind of bored, and wanted to write down some of my daydream plots. As some of you know, I like to think of myself as a 'technical' DDer. I like to get very in depth with my daydreams, most of which revolve around science and technology. I want to go through one with you, but it's too long for one post. Below is just the first part. After writing this, I realized it was hard to tell what part of my daydream is fiction…

I am 16 years old and I can no longer remember a time where I didn't use daydreaming as a form of escapism. It started when I was really young, as I would use it to help me fall asleep. It then progressed as I got older, when I listen to music - I daydream, when I watch TV or movies - I daydream, when I go to bed or whenever I'm by myself - I daydream. It is a huge part of my life and if I did ever choose to make an attempt to stop, my life would be completely different. 

I don't know…

About a minute of what I do at work all day. So you can see why it is so hard not to daydream.

18 VIEWS!! @ 1^st post. Cool. People read and understood and commented. Thank You.

So I thought I would post as soon as I uploaded my basic information. But procrastination and a host of other factors got in the way. I realized that I can’t write on the spot in the cyber café. I have to write beforehand. That is because I discovered in the tiny cubicle of the…

Hi all!

I just wanted to post on my first day of orientation for graduate school. I am so exhausted but had so much fun today. I am in training to be a Graduate Student Instructor. Part of our requirement was to give a 5-10 minute presentation and I did really well!  I didn't vomit, anyway! Tomorrow we have another 10 minute scientific teaching presentation to give with just a chalkboard and notes.

I am remembering why I love academia so much - it is incredibly taxing…

Would you jump at the chance if you had the opportunity to make your DD come true? What if there was a person you had DD about for a while, and then that person suddenly became an interacting part of your life? 

Maybe you've dreamed about that person, and then suddenly you realized, hey this person is here, why not make them enter a real life story...

Would you if you could?

i'm currently 16. and i feel like i write about this a lot on here, but i'm in love with my characters.

like, i'm really in love with my characters.

i've noticed that a lot of people with MD are really into all the action that happens in their daydreams, always coming up with different situations for their characters to get into and then starting over again. fighting zombies, stranded in the wilderness, going to space...

not me. i've created these characters who are the…

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT NOTICE.  I WILL BE GONE FOR A FEW DAYS, STARTING ON THURSDAY OR FRIDAY OF THIS WEEK.  I don't know when I will be back, but I hopefully won't be gone for too long.

The reason is I will be getting surgery to fix my GERD.  My surgeon said I could be out the next day, but the last time I had surgery and was told that, I was in the hospital for 4 days.
