"my child is fine"
your child is looking up the birthdate of fictional characters so they can accurately place their own self inserts into the proper timeline.
You child preforms receptive moments like a stressed ape at the zoo for hrs a day
Your child listens to music so loud on their headphones that they no longer see what's in front of them but a whole other universe
me, I am that child

i feel like maladaptive daydreaming is so fucking hard to cope with or manage because it just creates this never ending cycle of relapse where your heavy daydreaming takes a toll on your life so when you finally try to limit it you're so ashamed and disappointed by what your real life has become/what you done or haven't done that you just collapse and continue the bad habit that caused it in the first place. it becomes so engrained in your daily life and the way you think that you don't realize how much you rely on it until you try to stop. next thing you know, you're on the shower and you realize you can't go more than ten seconds without slipping away. the days go by so fast but in the moment, you're so desperate for any kind of escapism cause you're just not used to sitting in the real world. i have no identity. my entire mental state is dependent on it. how well i'm doing is entirely defined by the daydream ideas i can scrape up. i'll have a complete mental break and then the next day i manage to be whisped up in another dream, one that promises to stay, to be kind. to love me, and then the cycle starts all over again.

on one hand, relying on fictional characters for happiness is objectively Not Healthy™
on the other hand, i literally made them up in my own brain and i can make them do whatever the fuck i want because my mind is my own safe space and i can do whatever the fuck i want with it
at this point i'll take whatever meager sliver of control i can get honestly these bitches should be glad i choose daydreaming over death when the world is the way it is 💀

It really is so sad that I have to daydream to cope with life.
And I’ve done it for so long now that nothing in reality will ever be enough because it isn’t just like my daydreams..
Sure it may be the safest coping skill but it also has taken me away from experiencing life like I want too. I know they aren’t the healthiest of choices I’d make but at least I would have some fun memories!
But tbh I don’t think my life would have been great either way, I have like 5 disorders that make socializing a problem & my self esteem a problem.
In conclusion my life sucks and I won’t ever be able to replicate my daydreams into reality and reality will always suck for me.

Thinking about the future a little too hard makes me spiral a whole lot more than it should. Wdym I have to go out into the real world? The perfect little world that I've created in my head is enough for me.

hey maladaptive daydream community it's me again (who
so, after going through assessment (?) with a neuropsychologist and a psychiatrist, turns out my maladaptive daydreaming was me being schizoid 🫠 yay now i know that I have schizoid personality disorder AND adhd!! kind of a wild ride.. at first I was kinda shocked but after processing it, I realized that both these conditions literally make perfect sense with everything I feel and experience.. wow just wow
so yeah, I started taking antipsychotics and here's what happened: my veritbond disappeared. literally disappeared; he's gone, Lowell is gone (his name is Lowell).. ok wait, he didn't disappear completely, I still think about him and visit his stories but it just feels like he has merged with me and now he isn't around anymore.... bc he's just me yk......... hmm.... and strangely, I don't feel bad about it (I felt lonely for a couple days but I'm good now thanks to antidepressants too)
I've been talking to myself less, losing myself in daydreams less and I feel more in touch with reality in general. I still daydream and I still feel my imagination run wild sometimes, but in a more controlled, organized way. the chaos has calmed down you know
so... idk what I want out of this post, maybe give a heads up to anyone seriously struggling with maladaptive daydreaming like I was... maybe you're in the schizo spectrum?? I wish these assessments and diagnostics were more accessible UGH anyway thanks guys you are brave and cool, never forget that!!!!!

Maladaptive Daydreaming things
making AMVs of with your paracosms
losing sleep to daydreaming
lying in bed daydreaming
acting out daydreaming
having multiple paracosms you switch from
daydreaming in everyday life, getting lost in daydreaming when you're supposed to be doing things
daydreaming mid conversation
listening to music to get you in a daydreaming mood
starting to daydream after getting triggered
not being able to talk about your paracosms cause theres so much of it and its very complex
daydreaming irl scenarios to see all the options that could happen
maladaptive daydreaming instead of other coping mechanisms like cutting
