Anyone Else DDing Since Childhood?

[Erin]

As I've been reading blog posts (and, yes, I've already sort of touched on this in my Introductions blog post) I've been noticing that a lot of people have been talking about their MD beginning sometime in their teens or young adult years. They talk about when they started doing it and what made them start. As I've already mentioned, though, DDing has been a large and disruptive part of my life since as far back as I can remember. And, according to my parents, it's been happening even before I can remember.

So, I guess I'm just wondering: Is there anyone else here who has suffered from MD since early childhood? Anyone else who has no memory of how this all began because it started before you could remember?

Oh yes! I've been daydreaming since like foreva!!!! Like many DD I dont have an exact day or cause of why.

But a far as I can remember, proabably around the age 7. This is when I started doing it in my head though because I used to act most of my daydreams out before this but turned to be kind of embarrassing as I got older. Pacing around and talking to myself or making up fantaies wasn't something most people considered normal and most of my friends in school thought i was weird already. =P

Why? Causes?...well i don't know. Could have been sheer boredom or a way to deal with stress. My parents used to scream and fight alot when i was growing up, used to really piss me off to have to wake up in the middle of the night to them screaming or hitting one another. =O

But yeah, I was a very very but VERY imaginative 3 year old who just made up stories after stories in my head and just wouldn't be quiet =P

It was really early, only I can remember. Books were my best friends since I were 3, so I were practically living within the stuff all my life. Drove my family crazy!

Lots of people start in early childhood.  I, personally, have been doing it as long as I can remember.  I'm sure I started as an infant.  I grew up in my daydream world.  It was my main reality growing up.
