Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
First of all I would like to expressed my gratitude to Ms. Rose, for accepting my request on joining this group.
Hi, guys. I'm new here and thanks to this I can express my feelings about my MD.
Well, to start I'm so good on creating my DD activity (and i know everyone does too). I spend hours of daydreaming in my life, and it feels good, feel so joy and glad from what I did from what i have achieved. But the truth is in reality I'm not really happy, I find myself sad, alone that I feel no one is interested talk to me. Well not actually like that, maybe because I doubt on talking to someone that when in the middle of our conversation I just suddenly pause and then start on DD. Feels like my confidence on talking to someone became worst cause I'm pretty aware that anytime, anywhere my DD will activate. of course i don't want from others to think about me being crazy or something. So i just keep my distance to them or not talking just gestures or like that. I don't have a complete control on my MD. This is serious matter, and i'm so afraid that I don't know what will happen next.
I don't feel telling to anyone about my MD, even my parents, siblings and to my bestfriend. I don't know how will they react if they find out what MD is. I'm afraid if they won't believe me, and start judging me from what I am.
I really wan't to control my DD (cause I know it can't be stop), I wan't to step up live like what others normally do. Like you guys I do have friends, I love parties, events, hang out with friends. It's just this thing it feels like making a distance on me from society.
Any suggestions on how to control it? Is there a step by step procedure to control it? Thanks everyone any suggestion will be gladly appreciated.

What do you usually DD about? This may help us understand you better and/or think of more ideas.
I agree that you already do quite well :)
I know how annoying it can be...I used to be that way. The first step (in my opinion) is trying to find out why you DD. Most people do it because they want to escape reality for a while. Maybe there is something you would like to change. But this is something for you to think.
A good place to start is this: http://wildminds.ning.com/forum/topics/what-helps
people here also often discuss ideas about controlling MD. Stay around, be patient, and you'll find some ideas sooner or later :)
The important thing is to not give up ;)
I do have friends, I love parties, events, hang out with friends.
well then you are already doing better then I do. It is getting harder for me to talk to people and give them my attention. So if you come up with any good ideas I would love to hear them as well.
And welcome!
