I have felt soalone and crazy for so many years! I almost cried when I found you and this site. My story is story is so similar to yours! I can't believe there are other people out there like me.
Thank you for letting me join. Your website is amazing! I can't put in to words what a great consolation it is to me to know there are others who can truly understand what I'm going through.
Hi Cordellia, thank you for this site, if you or Cynthia need any help in your research please let me know and I will do everything I can. Keep up the good work xx
Another thing. I thought I was on the verge of schizophrenia, dementia or sure to suffer a brain aneurysm or something with my constant over thinking and fantasizing. I wake up and the first thing that pops into my head is an elaborate fantasy, live of my alter ego, blah blah.
It doesn't help that I am an aspiring writer, so I live vicariously through my characters, living their lives in my head as if it's my own. I thought I could "write" the characters out of my head, but writing down the fantasy lives doesn't help, because I just move on to a new one.
Consequences? I am so forgetful, because it's so easy for me to slip into a fantasy world. I have lost stuff on the subway three weeks in a row, because I fell into fantasies. The last time I lost something, I hadn't gotten it back and had to pay $200 to replace it. Ouch! My biggest fear is that I'll slip into a fantasy while driving...I just hope that doesn't happen.
Also, I'd like the pacing to stop. I can walk past people and not notice them, because I'm a mind away.
Hello, I wonder if you can give me any advice. I'm a teacher and have a boy of 7 years old in my class. He daydreams alot and I was looking for ways to help him when I came across MD. He also has problems with socialising. At play times he will often pace up and down the playground on his own seemingly in his own little world. Most of the time he doesn't get much work done as he seems to be daydreaming. He also makes noises every now and then but doesn't seem to be daydreaming when he does this. He reads, spells and does most other things well for his age. I first thought he was showing slight symptoms of Aspergers. I spoke to him today and asked him to try and explain what happens when he looses concentration and he said "things come in through the window and get into my head". I know lots of children daydream every now and then but this is something more extreme and I'm pretty sure he is not deliberately not doing his work and it is something he has no control over. Are there any tips or anything that might have helped you when you were at school. Thank you in advance for any help you can give. Sam
Thank goodness. Although I'm a wreck when they have to wear those collars. They look so pitiful. My 15 1/2 year old, Mr. Good Kitty is really going down hill. It's so sad. But he's looked like an old cat since he was young, and has been asthmatic for years. So my husband & I have always thought he would die young, and he's still here. So who knows.

Thank you. I'm pretty freaked out at the moment. I'm hoping that talking to some other people who might understand this might help.
