Hello everyone! I (23F) finished my bachelors and I develop software. I am glad I discovered a term for something that I’ve been experiencing since I was about 11. It started off with daydreams about actors (like fan fiction). Then I started creating plots with people I know, me being an observer. Now I have created an alternative world, where I am everything I want to be with people from real life and from my imagination.
I’m ashamed of having these thoughts and honestly can’t tell anyone about them because it’s so embarrassing. I used to be very shy but now even though I enjoy social interaction, I still find myself drifting away all the time. I get up many times during a task to pace and whisper. Day dreams are so distracting but so satisfying.
I am happy I found this community and reading through these posts I am a little relieved that others have experienced the same things. I feel like this is preventing me from living my fullest life so I am ready for a change. Thank you all for sharing and being kind!
