<p>i guess that's for someone with a disease to decide </p>
<p>if you have a disease, you should be taking medication for it...well hopefully...</p>
<p>the best thing to do is to see a doctor or a cognitive behavioral therapist about your daydreaming </p>
<p>however, when i told my doctor about my daydreaming and focusing problems, all she did was give me random medicines to try </p>

<p>i just have an active mind so whenever im slightly bored, i'll use daydreaming as a way of escaping reality and passing time </p>
<p>the therapist told me what medication the doctor should give me (short acting dexedrine) but i haven't gotten the prescription yet so when i get it i will report back if it helps </p> Dear Darren,

<p>I have in a way "triumphed" over my MD, but the cost is sometimes overwhelming. I decided to end my(intense) fantasies around the time I was 12 years old, as it was beginning to distress me, but it was nearly impossible.

<p>I have in a way "triumphed" over my MD, but the cost is sometimes overwhelming. I decided to end my(intense) fantasies around the time I was 12 years old, as it was beginning to distress me, but it was nearly impossible. I did stop the fantasy that was causing me distress, and I have truly accomplished so much, but it took a long time. As of right now, I use a fantasy identity occasionaly when I'm bored or dissatisfied( far more tame than the distressing fantasy), but it causes no dysfunction, and I'm even using that less and less as I like who I am more and more. However, ending my former daydreams the way I did ignited a sometimes intense mental OCD that refuses to leave despite what caused it now being completely gone. I guess I just mean, be carweful how you attempt to control your daydreams, because it might leave scars you can't even know,</p> md can be a way of escaping y…tag:wildminds.ning.com,2012-10-27:4661400:Comment:1055192012-10-27T20:28:01.071ZDarrenhttps://wildminds.ning.com/profile/Wadupp

<p>yes no one said stopping md was going to be easy because if it was then a lot of you wouldn't still be here (a few people have stories about how they have almost completely conquered md and these stories are great)</p>
<p></p>
<p>i don't even have md but i tend to have an 'active mind' and sometimes its hard for me to bring up the courage and confidence to start and maintain a good conversation but i figured i might as well try my best and go out of my comfort zones because the more i do it,…</p>

<p></p>
<p>there seems to be a lot of underlying issues for some of you guys like my therapist said md is usually from a a traumatic experience and i can't say i've ever been sexually abused or involved in a fatal car crash or anything...its horrible that some of you guys had to go through that and so i feel like md is a result of this...a result of you wanting to not experience a certain reality of something </p>
<p></p>
<p>but again md can be about the goals you want to achieve and so its all different for everyone </p>
<p></p>
<p>like what m hunter said in one of his blogs... if you don't know what you want in life you will never achieve anything</p>
<p></p>

<p>You make it sound so easy, going out and socializing with others and just doing things. But I think there are deeper issues underlying my MD, because I have social phobia as well as avpd. I get hypervigilant in public. I need to fix those underlying problems before I can fix MD, that's what I think.</p>

<p>I believe it is not easy too. I have tried many times to do what you said. and I stopped for a period of time then I felt something pulling me to daydreaming again. maybe you feel it is easy because you do not have the same problem. I have imaginary friends. and you will not believe it but I love these imaginary people. Day dreaming gives me a special feeling I could not find it in any thing else in life. but because it ruins my real life I want to get rid of it. but it is not easy. In fact…</p>

Day dreaming gives me a special feeling I could not find it in any thing else in life. but because it ruins my real life I want to get rid of it. but it is not easy. In fact your post gave me a push to stop day dreaming I hope the God help me with that. I cannot get a therapist so I have to do it all by myselfe.</p>
<p>thank you </p>
