Wow its been decades..I finally have a name for this.

I have suffered from this since at least early teens.Possibly longer.I had an overactive imagination as a child and would act out movies after watching them.My mother thought it odd and would tell me to stop and that I was being silly so i would hide this activity.maybe why it became MD??? Could this be a reason?? So it has continued on into my 40's.Althought it has changed and became less of a time consuming thing.Maybe because as we age we have less to fantasize about?I do notice it can be dormant until something interesting happens in my life..I have anxiety and sometimes it gets so bad I cannot leave the house.Mine is a rocking back and forth while standing to music and I will daydream/fantasize.A movie,music,book,article,google read etc..can evoke or enhance it. Any thing that stimulates me.Nothing sexual involves this.I am in some kind of action.I'll be a rock star,athlete or in a movie.Thats what it usually is about.I also need a mirror to watch myself.That is essential...odd I know!!! I know its not normal and plan to tell my counselor after I get some other things squared away.As far as i know there were no trauma or abuse in my past although my other brother had some abuse...not 100 % sure that I didn't but think none happened.

Daydreaming for Decades...

Also it has caused physical damage...all the rocking I suppose??
