This topic is definitely a hard one to talk about. daydreaming is a very personal thing. thank you for making this video.

I feel exactly the same! When I found out that my condition that I'd been keeping secret my whole life had a name, I cried. I actually just found out maybe a week ago from a Tumblr post! All these years I had been keeping it a shameful secret. I figured if anyone found out, I'd be shamed, and someone would try to heal me of it. Honestly, I never want to cure it. It's a huge part of my life, and it's my personal therapy. Reality is scary, and my personal world makes it a hell-of-a-lot easier to live through.

GMMythicalBeast thanks so much for your kindness sweetheart. Unfortunately I am only telling bc I CARE, but MD is actually not necessarily good for your mental health. I completely understand how you feel about it’s your therapy! There were times when I just wanted to be alone in my room after a long day and just daydream for hours. But the problem is, that once you come back to reality you feel very empty don’t you? As if in your head you’re something different and when you come back to the real world you feel like you don’t have a sense of self. I know you don’t want to cure it love, but I will genuinely advise you to try to atleast limit how much you do it, because you do have a actual life to live for and I don’t want you spending decades in a daydream. And I actually have a tumblr MD post and I would love for you to follow me and vice versa! The MD community up there is soooo kind and understanding people❣️❣️❣️

Also my tumblr is lexiikiaraa if you ever have the time to follow💜

my anti depressant meds are giving me madd block so I feel forced into reality and it gets overwhelming sometimes. Being a little more 'normal' is overrated to be completely honest lol great video, you're so lovely!

My MaDD kicked into overdrive when I heard Cranes in the Sky lol. Thanks for making this vid it's super helpful, I'm just realizing I have MaDD.

I've been day dreaming since I was 4 or 5, mine was triggered by loneliness as a kid, and I learned to live my life around it. I got good grades, got into a good college undergrad and post-grad, have held down busy, fast-paced jobs in news and marketing, and have a strict routine about personal hygiene and keeping my environment clean and tidy. I never miss a rent payment, and I still call and meet-up with friends. So I'd say that if your daydreaming is interrupting your basic necessities of life, it's something you'd want to address with a professional. I say all that to say, there are different experiences with MaDD.

Wow! Thanks for sharing! I'm 30 and this is the first time I've heard someone else describe my habits!

DollyWalt Of course! I felt like it was time to be open and honest that this a real thing that people deal with and I just wanted to reassure everyone they're not alone! (:

thank you so much for this video. MD has been in my life for about 4 years now and gotten worse over time. it got so bad this year i actually have to stay back a grade in school (i was failing almost all of my classes) i never really knew why i was daydreaming so much but found out about MD a little while ago. this video explains it perfectly and helps a lot thank you

I can relate to literally everything you said in this video, it scares me haha. No, seriously, thank you! I needed this. I have had MDD since as long as I can remember and the older I got the more I realised how far from reality I was living. I lost so much time... Thanks again for this great video. Next week I will finally tell my therapist about it. Phew.... Wish me luck :')

IDK TBH we probably are! I can only imagine how many of my fellow sisters deal with this and l just wanted to bring light to it honestly and if you ever need someone to talk to, feel free to message me❤️

i relate to every single thing you said, and trust me i know how scary it must have been to make this knowing how secretive I've been about my MD my entire life. I commend you for bringing awareness to this!

Thank you for this video, you are awesome :) I am 19 and I am daydreamer too. I am from Russia and unfortunately it's not talking about this phenomenon there :( I am waiting for your videos!

I think i might have maladalptive daydreaming disorder bc since i moved to the us im often alone (bc i left all of my close friends and some family members) and i didn't do this back where i used to live. But what i do is i kinda just walk around and pretend im in different situations but mostly i day dream about fighting like big huge monsters or things like that idk why tbh. And sometimes i daydream about adventures i would have with my old friends and stuff like that. And i used to think that i did this bc i was still a kid (bc i moved when i was 10) but im 14 going to 15 and i still do it everyday. I wanna tell my mom but i don't think shell belive me so idk what to do

also thanks! for the video cuz that's prove that i'm not insane

Those triggers are something arent they?? I cant watch a movie without immersing myself into it lol

Mine started in 2012. It’s my coping mechanism when things get hard it just happens everything is my trigger. I was playing with barbies with a friend I was 13 don’t judge 👀 and the next day I jus started daydreaming after awhile I started enjoying it now it’s boring too me bc I can’t have a normal life bc of it. Mine started off as doing dreams abt being a celebrity, fictional characters 😭 now I jus do it around me. My mom neglected me I wanted her attention & till this day she don’t say I love u I always had to say it first it still affects me 😭. I wanna stop the longest I went was 2 months but then I slipped bk into it. It’s hard to slip into it 😭 I thought I was the only one to a couple years ago I found it. I only do it bc I cope with it & I know how to stop when someone comes in the room. I can stop. 😭I’m jus going to keep it a secret my mom doesn’t kno wat it is she wanted to send me to a psych ward I’m not crazy I kno reality & fantasy i jus wanna stop I think I’ll have more friends n did better in school if I didn’t have it
