Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
Okay, this describes me really well.
"My MD is part of my thought pattern. It's always running like a tv in the background. My imaginative friends walk with me where ever I go. With them I can get emotional and excited while with my real friends I am only an observer."
I'm exactly the effing same. I'd often rather just watch my friends chat and laugh and, though not exclude me, exactly, but not really include me either, than I would properly joining them, yet when I'm not sitting/lying/standing somewhere in an imaginary world, I'll be talking to someone in me head who doesn't exist, and I will NOT shut the hell up in my head. Well, yet again, I'm bloody well glad (I'm saying 'bloody well' a lot this past half hour or so) that I'm not the only one who'd like that. =)

I'm pretty sure it was from the Yahoo Groups. Which I'm not on anymore 'cause I got sick of getting so many emails and I never went on the site 'cause it was a mess.
Hahaha, you seem to be really funny. ;)
Anyways, thank you for sharing this quote! Wow, I can relate to this, just like you. "My imaginative friends walk with me where ever I go;" Whenever I go somewhere with my family, like maybe to the store or something, I will add something into my daydreams where my characters come with "me" (the character I think of as "me" in my daydreams) to a store or other public place. Or if I have a school band performance, I will put into my daydreams, "myself" singing at a concert, in fronts of thousands of people.
When you said you don't shut up in your daydreams, I can relate. I'll always have a full-blown conversation with my "boyfriend" (who is actually my real love interest, LOL) in my daydreams.
It's so weird how many MDers are so much alike, yet so different...
Thank you for sharing your quote! I'm actually surprised that you found that somewhere...Do you remember if it was in a newspaper or something else like that? If so, I didn't know MD was that common...I thought it was rare and unkown about by many people.
Yes I can relate. Only if I'm with friend who I am really close to then I don't get that feeling. I can well urmm my charcter can just talk and talk.
So. Freaking. True. My friends, if i can call them that, do the exact same thing. It's not entirly their fault. Afterall, half the time im DD. When i do, it's often about my family, the one i invented, with my brother, 4 friends (clones) who are like my sisters, and my boy friend. It can get sad, but every time i try to include myself in my friends group i always mess up my words and end up looking like a fool :/ that's why its so nice to talk to real people on here :D
