begging people to understand that maladaptive daydreaming isnt just "likes to daydream" or "vivid imagination". no, it means i struggle to control when i daydream. most of the time i cannot listen to music or funny media without it triggering a daydream. i often spend hours a day daydreaming, and if im not at a place like school or in a car i cannot stop myself from pacing while i do it, even as im in excruciating pain from it (chronic pain). it can be physically painful when i try and resist daydreaming (though luckily that has started to get better).

it has impacted my mental health in many ways. i consume media that hurts me because its good for the daydream. it has impacted me participating in activities i want to do because its hard to stop daydreaming until it dies down on its own. it has impacted my memory. some days its easier, in some situations it can feel beneficial (though is that just the "coping skill" part of it talking?), but others it gets in the way of everything.

The "toxic" behavior cluster B engage in start in childhood.

They steam for society's unwillingness to protect children that result in childhood trauma because that would require society to give up its neuronormative and adult privilege.

Because we stigmatize these behavior adults are free to hurt children because when children engage in these behavior they are viewed as ignoring. When these behaviors in children should be sending red flags that something is not right.

took me a while to figure this out for myself, but my daydreaming isn’t a way to cope with my trauma, it’s just a prison to keep me from dealing with it

#it won’t stop #it won’t leave me alone #i can’t fucking breathe without them breathing too #i just want it to stop #but i’m nothing without it #daydreaming for the past 4 years is the reason i’m still alive #but now that i’m in a space where i’m happy #it’s awful #i just want to live but the connection i first created to feel safe is not making me feel fucking crazy #madd #maldaptive daydreaming disorder #maladaptive daydreaming #madd problems #daydreaming #actually maladaptive #maladaptive behaviors #maladaptive coping #maladaptive problems

Can astrology pinpoint the tendency to do maladaptive daydreaming?

Maladaptive daydreaming is a chronic habit of daydreaming vivid imaginary world, characters and stories. The dreamer acts out the scenes, imagines plot in head, isolates themselves, spends hours and hours replaying the scenes in their head. It is highly addictive and satisfying. The dreamer finds more excitement in daydreams than in reality. The dreamer imagines romantic partner, storylines and dialogues in their head. This is not a mental disorder yet but it can ruin a person's life by distracting them from work and school, isolating from relationships and addiction to daydreaming.

This type of maladaptive daydreaming happens as a result of childhood abuse or emotional neglect or emotional invalidation or emotional abuse or loneliness. The dreamer imagines themselves to be popular loveable well liked cool smart famous multitalented etc. Their imaginary character is everything they want to be. It is like that movie the fight club:

Why does this happen though and can we pinpoint this in astrology?

Pisces sign and 12th house are both related to daydreaming and imagination. This is where they zone out into another world. Add to it, emotional trauma and the result is maladaptive daydreaming.

In one case, the native with Saturn in pisces in the 5th house was a maladaptive daydreamer lifelong. Saturn in 5th house shows restricted childhood, confinement, not allowed freedom and independence, strict and controlling childhood. Pisces sign is again the representation of imagination and daydreaming. This shows that the native started daydreaming as a defense mechanism against childhood abuse. As life goes on, it becomes an addictive habit. Some people start writing novels from their behaviour but I dont know if it is acceptable. If it works for them then good, otherwise it is something that you must fix.

I will add more observations for this placement when I find them.

This is the problem then what is the solution?

Psychologist Eli Somer is the forerunner of studying maladaptive daydreaming. One suggestion he has is mindfulness. But it is easy to say than practice. How do you reach the point of mindfulness? By breaking yourself down to pieces. Understand your projections and the projections of those around you. Build self esteem and balanced self concept. Know your strengths and weaknesses. Learn the shit out of narcissism; your daydreams are highly narcissistic in nature. This is a guarantee. Socialize and practice new interpersonal skills. Change your environment and live in a safe normal environment free of abuse. Stay grounded in reality.

Wish you the best in healing!
