Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest

Love fixation

Hi,
New member. Does anybody have issues with excessive fantasizing about love interests that you don't really know or are unavailable or celebrities? I'm very embarrassed about this problem because when I get obsessed about them enough and I'm manic (I'm bipolar) I will contact them and humiliate myself. ( Although 3 times it worked and I hooked up with them). I get a high from feeling like they are a soulmate sometimes. I know everybody does this to some degree but I know this level is not normal. I think about this current person even when I am at work or with certain people. Also the sex fantasies are quite intense and feel real (again, low level mania). Anyone else?

I daydreamed about 2 of my crushes and lived a life with them in my heads, although, one of them got committed to someone else, the other isn't looking for anyone now (That's what she says, at least), so I'm building the bond with her to see where it goes.

Also, I have had sex fantasies and while they don't always feel realistic (I don't know since I haven't had it yet), it does feel good for the body.

I hope it wasn't too NSFW. Just sharing my experience as you are.
