Hello friends, I'm 25 years old from kerala, india. Since childhood itself i've MD. As a mediocre student in school daydreaming was an easiest option for me to be happy and make me assume that i'm succeeding. So, i've started to consider daydreaming as an option to rescue myself from displeasure around me. Slowly it becomes a part of my daily life. Started to assume plots and characters about everything which attracts me be it cricket match,award show, character in a movie etc. For me the pattern is like this,first the trigger will happen when I happened to watch a movie,news,cricket match etc. Then, will develop a character who excel in that specific field and my character will be admired by the world. This character and plot will play in my head time to time in a day when i'm apart from people. In lockdown this cycle has become intense. This has impacted my productivity. This is the first time I realise this as a big threat. This lifestyle has already demolished my sleep. Anxiety rages inside me. Now that I realised this as a problem what will be your advice and shall I need to take therapy. Please do advice

Welcome to the forum!
Anything that you can do to ground yourself in reality and become okay with the person you really are should be beneficial. Most therapists don’t know about MD, but if it stems from something like low self esteem, they can definitely help you work on that.
