Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
“When you're attacking, never forget that you're attacking"
My brother reflection about Samurai Champloo philosophy
More than a month ago I fight the daily battle against MD. Like many things in life, end it is just a matter of taking the actual decision to do so. Never imagine you would get out of that circle. Many times I have made decisions to improve my quality of life, and leave certain bad habits or pay more attention at work. But always failed and I felt guilty because I assumed it just was not for that act I intended. In the last time i had lost hope and I could not take myself seriously because I knew I would fail in my attempt. I never think that my tendency to imagine too much could be largely responsible for my worst neurosis. I Do not think the MD is the cause of all my misfortunes, I have no prejudices about him and I do not think this condition is essentially negative, but as time passes I see it less as an illness but as a peculiarity of some human minds. Let me share with you some things I discovered at this time that I release the MD. First of all, although I can dreaming in normal, I usually have stronger dream states. Achieve stronger rid of those states, which were causing me many problems in my daily life.
The MD appears to be linked to a specific mental ability to abstract easily. As a child playing swinging a rope with my right hand as he stared, and I continued grow up. Just a month ago I realized I was hypnotizing. I learned to do instinctively. I decided to stop to have something in his right hand all the time and it turned out, my life will succeed to the vast majority of intense dreams, which I wore out mentally. However, the brains used to work in a certain way, so I can be strong fantasies without self hypnotize dreams. We have wild minds, the secret is learning how to tame them.There are many techniques available to control the MD. Concentrate on things is the best remedy, force themselves to do it, eventually they will get used to that and prove them easier. It is an exercise. So going to realize that this is a defense mechanism. The other day I was listening to a song (the music is an important trigger) and I felt the energy of coming reverie. I could contain it and suddenly I realized that the song I was excited and me out to mourn. All this time my own repressed emotions that I always knew they were there but I could not get them out. Make the effort, because once they can re-enter the real world, things start to become easier and you discover that there are a thousand things to do and occupy your mind as well fantasize. I encourage you to meditate, it really works if you take it seriously. Make sport, learn to breathe. Probably never fully tame our mind, and do not know if that's the idea. But lead a more dignified life if it is a goal that can be achieved.
