I NEED TO VENT IT OUT

ok seriously, someone let me vent my daydream to them and lets talk about it. i constantly think about my opinions on characters and stuff like that and i imagine if like ellen was asking me questions about my characters and i realize i cant have a conversation with anyone except myself about it. i want someone whos actually interested to listen to it and talk about it and tell me their opinions on it and tell me which characters they like and dont like and ask me what the characters like…

24/10/12

                Whilst sitting here on YouTube watching a video of the best bits of the Ricky Gervais podcasts, a section about Karl Pilkington starting his diary came on. (After almost dying of laughter) I decided I would be interesting to begin my own diary, with this being my first entry.

                The day began with a chicken sandwich on wholemeal bread. The poultry was questionable, but what do you expect from Tesco’s own, thin sliced, one pound fifty for a thousand slices…

DIARY OF A STUDENT WHO DECIDED TO WRITE A DIARY

         I've decided to keep an online record of daily events, I'm not anticipating that anyone will even consider reading it, but if you do, I'd appreciate it so much and feel free to leave a comment or question and I'll get back to you as soon as possible if it's relevant for me to do so. The entries will be on separate blog posts entitled the date they were written.

         It's also unclear to me how interesting it will be to others here as i won't be mentioning MD unless…

Introducing myself and my long kept secret

I'm really glad to have stumbled on this site today. Last night I realized its been 8 years since I've been daydreaming everyday. I'm 20 and want to learn how to get rid of it.

I've never talked to anyone about this because it makes me feel psychotic! It's not normal to have your own world inside of your head. I literally have imaginary friends that I created. I don't talk to them aloud because I know they are not real, but its comforting to be able to sort things out to an…

Should i become a film Director?

Hey guys. i'm kind of new here so let me tell you about myself a little.

I'm 16, and i've had a horrible childhood. As a kid, about 6yrs old, i used to daydream a lot but not the maladaptive daydreaming type. Like i would act it out with my friends. And then i started watching movies, live action ones not cartoons, and i started daydreaming about them but only for like a few months and then i would get over it.

Around age 11, my life was going downhill fast (health issues, low…

Meditation... anyone use it?

Has anyone done meditation to help with MD?

Since my last blog post to stop MDing I've been rediscovering myself--I've had some fun, done new things, and met new people--which sounds great. However, the problem is that I still MD (though, it's because I haven't made a strong effort to stop.  I have my set MD time before I go to bed which I thought would make it easier than going cold turkey. Plus I didn't want to avoid all my…

Relief!

I can' t begin to express how glad I am that I found an answer for what has been going on for about 26 years. I am 34 and have been searching for answers on psychiatric web sites and medical articles and feeling frustrated at not falling into any category or under any diagnosis code. Then it hit me...search for what I am doing, excessive daydreaming, instead of searching for a diagnosis. It all fit...pacing, music, characters, facial expressions, and of course the paranoia over being found out.… Continue

Novel

Hello everyone, I hope your day is great. :)

Anyways, like the title says, yes I am writing a novel. I've been brainstorming this novel since June and have now almost reached the end of brainstorming just in time for November which is novel month. Now there is a challenge in November to write a novel (rough draft) in a month. The main reason I want to share this on here is because I had set a goal for me while writing this. Which is I can plan and think out  this novel but…

Peace of mind

A sense of relief surged through me to find that I'm not the only person in the world to daydream like I do. The recent months have been the worst. I've lost more time than ever. Constantly daydreaming, fantasizing and making time to daydream. I feel so crazy that I'm happier in my head with my crazy stories and scenarios.

MD? Derealization?........What medication works and what doesnt?

Ok, so after having a bad experience with my first phychaitrist, I decided to try another docotr.  I was diagnosed with deppression and anxiety by my first Dr. and put on Prozac 20mg then ending in 40mg in which I just had horrible mood swings due to the medication. So, this other doctor at first thought I had ADHD innatentive, no suprise there since most dont now what MD is, he told me the daydreaming was part of it and the low attention also. (I tend to not pay attention alot but thats…

i think i may have negative SCHIZOPHRENIA

I am now 24. In some how I felt that I was different. But it never was a big problem in my day today life because I thought I have fulfilled my needs. And I thought it was some personality issue.  Because of the social issues which I am facing now in my day to day life, (in past few (7) years) I began to think.

Recently I am incapable of clear thinking, interpret of thoughts to words, social gatherings with no previous experiences - specially females, always I can't hold to a one…

Escaping Wonderland (the key of safety)

Synopsis up to now: I have escaped the lullaby of my deepest daydreams. I kept struggling to find my way, and currently I'm quite vigilant in real life. However, I'm still chained to the dreamworld and the power it has over me.  To fully escape I need to recover certain pieces of myself, and expose them to the real world. Pieces I burried in the dreamworld, in order to keep them safe, when I were still young and fragile. Every piece coming into light is one chain less. Let's see how this…

Ritalin

I was wondering if I should try ritalin since I've heard people report that when they take it, they can concentrate on homework for hours on end. And these people don't even have ADHD or concentration problems. However, we have concentration problems, so I was thinking of trying to get a prescription. The feeling of always being able to concentrate is a great feeling lol. Anyone here ever try ritalin? If so, how was it?

Unwilling to Daydream?!

Hello everyone! Anyways, as you know I've been on a higher dosage for a bit now and have been doing better in most ways.

Well for some reason it has been kind if happening slowly but I'm losing my interest in everything..even daydreaming. It's rather confusing to me because I've been this way before but daydreaming wasn't something that counted. I do daydream some but it is only because of habit. I could care less about daydreaming even. It's like the dds I love and adore so much…

SOS?

Wow, this is really tough to write about but I have to get it off my chest. The last time I was on here I wrote about how I was searching online for my "Dream Guy". I figured I'd never find anyone even remotely close to him. I kept up my search thinking I was doing it just for fun. I feel so guilty but I joined a dating website for my search and guess what? I found a guy that looks exactly like my DD guy, lives in the same state, has the same first name and even wears the same hat in one of…

part 1 - who am I

part 2- daydreaming as a child

G'day

Hi there.

Firstly I would just like to say how absolutely fascinating this all is.

I always expected the way I acted would be comparable to plenty of other people. In this world of 7 billion human experiences, it has always been my belief that this is the case. However, what I was not expecting was the symptoms to be so incredibly similar. It is simply amazing to me. A lot of what I have read after learning of maladaptive daydreaming is scarily close to my thinking. It's almost… Continue
