Hi I'm Melike, Actually I didnt share to anyone my maladaptive daydreaming, so I'm little nevrous. I dont know where to start becasuse I didnt remember my frist daydream, its happening since I know myself. The problem is I dont want to dream anymore, I know I am tricking myself while I was dreaming because I want impossible things and its hurts me most of the time. And its takes my time, I am dreaming 1 or 2 hours in a day. But I dont know how to quit daydreaming, in my dreams I am actriss and I won oscar, I can dance too, sing a song too, shortly I am perfect in my dreams and its so easy to be perfect not even tiring is it possible? In real life I am opposite to my dream chracter I am insecure and I dont have talent. I feel so lame eveytime I think about all of this. And so can anyone help me to stop daydreaming (or maybe reduce) I feel so alone in this subject. (btw Im not a native speaker Im sorry if I had mistake)

Welcome to the forum, Melike!
Daydreaming itself is totally normal, and it's not really possible to stop completely. However, if it's interfering with your ability to function in real life, then a good goal is to regain a balance between daydreams and real life. Some things that people have found helpful are exercise, mindfulness, and journaling. All of those are also healthy coping skills and can help you to deal with whatever is triggering your daydreaming to be maladaptive.
