Hi, my name is Felicia I am a new member. I am 22 years old. I just graduated with a degree in psychology and am starting my masters degree in Art Therapy. I have been daydreaming for as long as I can remember, I never realized how unhealthy and toxic my daydreaming had become until recently. I read a paper on Maladaptive Daydreaming and realized right away that I have it. I also have ADHD, depression, anxiety, and mild OCD. I never realized that the average person doesn't daydream in the same way that I do. I find myself getting angry or 
when I am put in a situation where I have to focus on something and can't daydream. I am always listening to music as a way to tune others out so I can enter my own world. When bad things happen in my life I can easily fall into my daydream and almost ignore my reality. I thought my inability to focus and my insomnia were all due to my ADHD and anxiety, but now I am realizing that my daydreaming also plays a huge part in that. I am looking for suggestions on how cope with my daydreaming so that I can start fresh and create the life I want rather than just daydreaming about it.
