Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest

Unwilling to Daydream?!

Hello everyone! Anyways, as you know I've been on a higher dosage for a bit now and have been doing better in most ways.

Well for some reason it has been kind if happening slowly but I'm losing my interest in everything..even daydreaming. It's rather confusing to me because I've been this way before but daydreaming wasn't something that counted. I do daydream some but it is only because of habit. I could care less about daydreaming even. It's like the dds I love and adore so much suddenly became worthless. I do have therapy tomorrow so I'll be sure to mention the lost of interest in everything.
I mean I guess it is good I'm not trapped by my dds but I miss it at the same time oddly. Also dding and eating was how I handled everything when I was severely depressed (suicidal severe >.<. ) I'm kind of nervous without the dding I'm going to fall back in to that horrible cycle. It was horrible. :/

Anyways, any advice to get through this? I would love to hear some tips and feedback. Thanks for reading. Have a good day/afternoon/ night or whatever time it is there. :)

@Both Thank you ^__^

Comment by Darren on October 12, 2012 at 1:01am: im just curious what drug are you taking?

i tried taking vyvanse for a month or so and it helped me concentrate a lot more but gave me bad side effects at the same time so I had to stop

then i tried taking concerta for a couple of weeks and then stopped because it didn't do anything except make me feel anxious all the time

I was thinking of giving ritalin a try, since it seems to work with people that don't even have ADHD or concentration problems, what do you think?

and some tips for you...i can only say that you should try finding something you find interesting and enjoy doing...like a sport or a video game or a book or cooking...or get a job... just some of my random ideas lol
