Recently my MD has been letting up. I'm able to actually go through out my school and focus on my work instead of  when i could get home to start MDing. Everything has gotten better, including my relationships with friends and family etc. Then when i think everything is starting to balance out it comes back harder that ever!

   My MD has this weird cycle thing going on, like it goes away and comes back with a bang. And i'm trying sososososos hard to end this. And now its like 5-6 hours a day of day dreaming when it used to be like 30 min. But the weirdest thing is, I've noticed that now when i try to stop MDing i get sick? headaches, tiredness, nausea along with anxiety etc. And when i restarted it all went away?    

     My mom even noticed something was wrong? I don't think this all could be in my head or anything, or that I'm over exaggerating. Does anyone else have this happen to them? or is it only me...?

Hi, Ellie, my MD doesn't really stop, but sometimes it comes to a slow idle, then comes back like a run away train.  I am 44 years old and have tried many things to try to stop daydreaming and haven't been successful so far.  One of the reasons I joined this site was to learn how to live with it.  When I have tried to stop, I get irritated, twitchy, depressed and usually feel overwhelmed.  Since not much is known about this, I don't know if it can actually be stopped or not.  Changing my thinking to living with instead of stopping has helped me feel a lot better.  One main area that is a lot better is daydreaming without guilt.  I spent a lot of time feeling guilty and stupid because I told myself that a grown woman should be able to control fictional storylines running around in her head.  Changing my thinking to living with, rather than stopping has been challenging, but lessened a lot of negative feelings I had.  Before trying to live with this, I felt guilty, stupid, juvenile, anxious, all around low view of myself.  Living with it has definetly helped in all these areas.  I hope this helps you.

Yeah, it's happened to me...usually when I am spending a lot of time (by a lot of time, I mean hours on end) in my head. Probably not a good thing (for me, anyhow).

For what it's worth, when I was a teen, I had a pretty serious problem with daydreaming, and the group home I lived in....I was not permitted to be alone...to force me from escaping in my head. I was a mess then. See, in my case it was a abnormal coping mechanism.

When I have tried hard to stop I got very anxieous and irratable.
