Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
hello everyone
I found this site a couple of days ago and I was looking around the site and thinking of joining. Well for the past two days I have been day dreaming non-stop about this site. When I found the blog section I really wanted to just write here because no one understands me at all. So I've been DDing about what to write and now I'm sitting here with a blank mind. LOL
I should tell you about my story. Well it all started when I was 13 maybe 14 years old. I would daydream for hours and hours. Before going to bed I would daydream for hours and then in the mornings it would be hard for me to wake up because I was so tired and I would always tell myself that I wouldn't do this again at night, but I never stopped. The mornings were just the same, DDing and then running around, being late for school.
I knew it was a problem so I decided to do some research but people would say its normal and you would grow out of it. I remember when I was little and I had imaginary friends but every child does, so I thought it will go soon just like the imaginary friends.
Now I'm 19 years old and my fantasy world hasn't gone at all. I still daydream for hours at night and when I wake up in the mornings. During the day I mostly DD about my problems and I can do it while I'm doing other stuff like when I'm eating, watching TV etc.
My fantasy world stops me from sleeping and the next morning I always wake up late. My mum thinks I might be anaemic because I'm always in bed. But I'm awake but just DDing. I keep on telling my mum I'm not tired its just I haven't had enough hours of sleep. But she won't listen and I can't get myself to tell her the truth so she is sending me for a blood test. I'll rather have her believe I'm tired than to tell her my shameful secret. I'm that type of person that's afraid of what people would think of me.
I think I should stop here, I hope my mind would stop DDing about writing a blog now because its getting ridiculous.
comments are welcome, I'd love to hear from you all!

Roobles I told my mum at night it takes me sometime to actually fall asleep but she doesn't listen *shrugs* Knowing my family if I started to write my DD down they will just end up reading it an I don't want anyone to know, well esp my family. If I'm in my room all dad my dad shouts at me and tells me to sit downstairs.
