Hi my name is Tess. I am 44 years old. I never really told anyone about my daydreaming, which I have been doing since I was a teenager. I always felt ashamed that I am still living in this fantasy world as an adult and then today I found out about MD and this forum. So I am so happy that 1. I am not the only one and 2. I can finally talk about it.
My MD goes with ups and downs. Sometimes I succeed in not daydreaming at all, this week it has been excessive to the point that I couldn't get myself out of bed. Which made me feel even worse and more ashamed. But the world I've created is too beautiful to let go of. I've also read about medication but I am afraid to let go of my daydreams, because it makes me feel less lonely. Although I also see that it is not beneficial. So I guess I am conflicted.
My daydreams are usually triggered by movies and if I daydream, it's at night which causes lack of sleep.
Nice to meet you all!
Best, Tess
