Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest
I have daydreamed my whole life, and it has made me underachieve so much. If I could focus for even a few minutes I could actually accomplish things but I can't even do that. I waste so much time daydreaming. It has made me so miserable, and I hate it. I have daydreamed today for probably around 3-3.5 hrs alone. I am going to keep myself accountable through this forum and post daily about how much I have daydreamed. Ideally I just keep getting better slowly and through time I will decrease my daydream time.
If you have any tips or words of advice that would be great.

Day 1: Daydreamed a little when I woke up but wasn't as bad as a typical day. No music when working out helped a lot. Today was better than yesterday. Progress.
Getting better. Still struggle to take a quick break between doing tasks because it always results in a way longer break than intended.
Day 3: Probably got worse. 2 steps forward one step back. Can't dwell on it.
Day 4: Slow start. Getting better. It's so hard not to get sucked into a daydream.
Day 5: Gotten worse. I get sucked into a daydream so easily and never know how to get out. It sucks.
Day 6: Probably got a little better today. I have noticed on days where I daydream more I am way more exhausted. The daydreams truly wear me out and drain me.
Day 7: Getting better. Slowly...but progress is progress
I hope that you find the recovery process smooth and are able to push through the hard times easily.
Best of luck!!!
Day 8: Probably got a little worse. It's so hard to stop a daydream once I get one started.
It's bloody hard once you give in. The worst feeling is being split into 2 worlds. You aren't present in the here and now but are not daydreaming after stopping once either. You feel numb. It's maddening.
Day 9: It is hard...but slowly getting better.
