wow what a revelation!

I have only recently started to look into maladaptive daydreaming, which is surprising as it is something i have been doing since a very young age. I have always battled with my sense of self, perceiving my personal life goals as achieving contentment in myself so that i can experience more and give more. What shocked me profoundly is how even though I have been very aware of these daydreams all my life, the detrimental effect this has had on me is huge, and explains a lot! I feel relieved to know that other people experience life similarly, and am glad that im now more aware, i want to live in reality!! I want to be the person i am in my dreams! But i certainly am not going to get there, by staring at a wall and dreaming my life away!

"I want to be the person i am in my dreams!" that rings very true for me too. I think it's the key to living successfully with MD.
