Comment by The1andonlyAbber on November 3, 2014 at 7:22pm: When I was 7 and 8 I would daydream nearly 100% of the time I was awake. The longest daydream I've had recently, though, was about 4 hours. I think I stopped daydreaming 24/7 because I gradually realized that even though I was making the daydreams MY reality by doing that, I still wasn't making them physically REAL. Focusing on the positive side of my daydream storyline not being real helped, too (not really having all the responsibilities my character had, etc.). Try to focus on the positive aspects of your real life. Also, try to think about WHY you are daydreaming so much. Are there problems you are running away from? Is your real life unsatisfying? Solving those issues might make you have less desire to daydream.
