 Everyone! I am new on this forum and would love to connect with all of you wonderful people! So if it is okay would you like to share what you guys generally daydream about? I understand it is hard to share, so I'll go first. I generally daydream about my future goals and how my life would be if I actually achieved them! Also sometimes daydream about people interviewing me for my absolutely immense success  😂. This was embarrassing, but not your turn!!

Welcome to the forum!
Those are pretty common themes among MDers, so you definitely don't have to be embarrassed about it. Personally, my daydream content varies, but it usually includes some idealized version of myself being badass, powerful, and loved. It's my way of coping with not feeling like that in real life.
Would you mind if I moved this post to the "Themes and Plots" board? I think it would fit better there than on the announcements board :)

Well... it´s like I have two types of dreams. When I listen to music I fantasizing that I´m a man in a fantasy world (it´s complicate to explain) but that boy (me) suffered a lot when he was a child, and tries to suicide but his friends stop him, and it´s always the same over and over. And the other type is when I´m cooking or washing the dishes, I daydream winning an argument, or telling my boyfriend (or someone) something. I don´t know if someone happens the same or not hahah.

Merhaba ben çok sık olarak başkaları tarafından çok değerli biriymişim ve beni çok sevdiklerinin hayalini kuruyorum. Yaklaşık 4 yaşımda kafamı sağa sola sallayarak uyumaya alışmışım fakat 21 yaşında hala devam eden bu özelliğim artık uyumak için değil hayal kurmak için var sürekli içinde bulunduğum ortamlardan kaçarak kafamı sağa sola sallayarak hayal kuruyorum ve bu hayallerim çoğunlukla beni sevdiğine emin olmadığım insanların bana değer verdikleri olağanüstü hayaller oluyor. Bu hayaller benim günlük hayatımı nerdeyse tamamen abluka altına alıyor. Kimi zaman ise kendimi mükemmel her şeye yetebilen başarılı bir insan olarak hayal ediyorum alkışlandığımı şampiyonluklar hayali kuruyorum fakat hiçbir çaba gösteremiyorum başarılarım için sadece hayal olarak kalıyor.

Mine change A LOT. I have multiple different 'worlds' that I'll go visit depending which one I'm in the mood for. Strangely, my gender changes depending which world I'm currently in. Recently, I've been daydreaming about being a musician in the past, like wayyy it the past. not so sure what the year is but there is no technology whatsoever, and the most commonly used weapon is a sword kind of past. It's very bright there, and usually I'm in a forest of sorts, just playing music or making an audience to listen to me play. It's really peaceful.

Hey everyone, I’ve literally only just discovered that there’s a name for this and it effects others in a consuming way 🥲. So, what do I dream about? Well, I have shocking social anxiety from being bullied by my family, I always scan people’s body language, facial expressions etc for rejection or proof that they don’t want me around, consequently, my dreams are about being popular, loved, respected, wanted (even sexually). I can lose whole days, and I get so tired, it feels dissociative for sure to the point where real life is fuzzy

Hi, sorry if my English is bad (I'm French, I try to do my best) I came here because I have just discovered that this had a name in English but I have not found any French website about MD So personally I dream about fictional characters from books, movies, series or cartoons. It started when I was 10 and since, every time I see a fictional universe that I like I incorporate it in mine but in a huge single story where everything is connected. I am 18 now so there were a lot of twists and turns and I can't remember today all the phases and details that there have been. But I don't dream of myself, which a lot of people with MD apparently do. I am never in my stories, I mean sometimes I play a character but never "the real me". It's super weird and super cool at the same time to see that other people have that Sorry again for the mistakes

I have several daydreaming themes:
1) I imagine myself as a widely successful person (e.g. an accomplished writer, a famous actress) - these scenarios are very loosely connected to my actual life; I often incorporate known people to those stories, but then some characters are entirely fictional
2) I imagine myself living my current life but I'm more confident, outgoing, resourceful; I get things done, I work hard etc.
3) I imagine myself as a character in a fantasy setting - these daydreams are the basic background for my writing ideas

Ummm...oh gosh this is going to be awkward for me! My daydreams aren't very creative. Pretty much, all my characters are taken from books,movies,shows, and whatever other media there is. I have a few original characters though. Each character comes from a different dimension. When a dimension gets destroyed or dies, the core figures from that dimension get transported to "The House". It's an abandoned house that I and some friends had been turning into an interdimensional safe house for years. In order to survive, we produce media, music, and a variety of things, hoping to get viral. As we're all living here, one of our scientist characters created a database where all the worlds could be restored, but only through the database. So, all the residents are booted up to this database that's synched with their DNA. It powers the world, and it joins all the connected worlds in the database. We all travel there either when we're asleep or through a special transmitter. Worlds have seasons and when one particular world doesn't fit a season, they go back in the database and come out when it's time. We're hunted and sought out by these interdimensional demons posing as a government branch. They tried to end us years ago, during a war but failed. These demons made an alliance with a variety of creepypastas and are now specifically targeting various members of the house. It sounds way cooler than it is!
I also have a world that I simply call, "The Lost Children". These are characters I created and they populate a variety of dimensions and story arcs as forgotten characters. I simply tell their stories. I try to take plotholes and unfinished story arcs and use these characters to explain them or provide more insight to a character or storyline.
There's also the Tales. That's a series of dystopic worlds and scenarios I created for a story I'm writing. However, the tales can become a part of my daydreams. There's one tale about a little girl who's the personification of balance and her adoptive father is a political authority. Originally, I used it to demonstrate the relationship between balance and authority, but I've gotten so sucked into their lives. I'm sure I've got some more, but those are my main ones! Sorry for rambling and making you all suffer by reading this, it's the first time I've really told anyone and I'm horribly embarrassed by doing so!

Hi. In my dream, I finally got my doctorate in literature. I teach at the University of Literature. My book has been published. I am the best professor of literature And I met a good man.And my imagination is exactly like reality. For example, I wake up in the morning dreaming, I go to work and I even fight and reconcile with that man.This is not painful, is it? It becomes especially painful when you open your eyes What I like is that what happens inside my dream actually happens to me.

Lots of different types but most common..
1) idealized version of myself 2) couple of different families that I revisit, just living life.. very slow and mundane dreams 3) full blown fantisies, they are on going and I could forget about them and never return to them or return years later with another storyline. (Very movie or series like) 4) conversational (not visual), long conversations with one or multiple people. Most common is talking to my imaginary therapist.

I have a few daydreams on the go:
1. A better version of myself. This one I have had since a teenager. In it, I'm more prettier, popular, outgoing etc. Usually I'm me, but I base my looks on a celebrity I find attractive, if that makes sense.
2. The better version of me meeting a world famous actor and having an amazing love affair.
3. I have a fantasy world daydream, where the main character gets sucked through a portal into another world called Druimador. There she meets a handsome hermit living in the woods and he takes her in and teaches her about his world. I'm trying to turn this into a book. 4. My favourite daydream is based in the sixties and the main character meets and loses the love of her life and then they are reunited years later in present day.
All my daydreams involve romance and meeting the love of their lives.

Hey you guys. I literally just joined DIB few mins ago  . I am strangely comforted that there are other MDs in this world. My dreams varies with time/years. 1. I met this person in a coffee house last June. Before meeting him, I used to fantasies about meeting him all the time. But in those fantasies, I used to meet some cool celebs or my friends or someone I know who would come and talk to me. Now, the thing that is bugging me since last June is, after I met him, I now daydream occasionally about the things we talked about, or the clothes I wear changes into something cooler, or I wax my arm before going to meet. So many things could have been different. If only I didn't have a breakdown the former night, if only I had proper sleep, maybe I could have been a cooler more fun more smarter me. 2. I daydream about defending myself from someone who is either a rapist/sexual abuser to my friends (in my dream y'all)or someone who is trying to kiss me without my consent in front of the entire class. I imagine myself being brave and strong and powerful fighting that person off. 3. I also frequently daydream about singing a song and rocking the stage in my intercollege acoustic night. Or I daydream about dancing on the stage in my annual college event and everyone appreciating how good my moves are.
