Has anyone ever tried to just consciously stop MD? I have and I feel an intense and uncontrollable amount of sadness and loneliness. The daydreaming is my coping mechanism. How do you feel when you try to stop and what do you use to preoccupy your mind? I tried songs which helped for a while but I'm tired of daydreaming. I want to stop being late for things, because I just MD for 2 hours. I am tired of people asking me if I am okay because I am staring off into space, or talking to myself. I have been doing this since I was 12, It started with celebrities and then changed to everyday things. I could daydream for hours about something that I have to do the next day. Playing the situation out like a movie in my head. I really don't understand why I do it. Has anyone seen a therapist for it
Thanks for reading...

I am doing the same things exactly and my life gets worse every day i don’t know what to do too. There are some videos on youtube some therapists talking about this situation and give some advises. I don’t know if it works for you but maybe you should chech it out. |

I have tried to stop before by just trying to stop myself every time I start to daydream. It never works though because I’ll unconsciously find myself doing it again and not even realize at first, and then I just get frustrated and really upset. I feel lonely a lot and I do have anxiety, so maybe it is one way I cope with that because I feel like I have a hard time communicating my thoughts and feelings. It makes me feel not normal but I am starting to get hope again because I feel that there are ways that can help me reduce my daydreaming and maybe one day permanently. I read what other people said have helped them and how it actually made them stop the daydreaming completely. One way was to stop yourself each time you see you’re about to daydream and ask yourself in your head what you’re feeling and why you’re feeling it and they kept doing it and believed that it really helped them. I really want to put an end to my MD and I’m going to keep trying until I can fully stop. What makes it so hard though is that I will MD about any little thing and go on for hours and I’ve been doing it for the longest I can remember. But I guess you have to start at some point in order to stop, I hope this gives anyone some hope because I sure do want to get rid of my MD.

I’ve been trying really hard to stop for the last 3 days, it’s boring and lonely, but it seems to be easing kinda, at the least I’m very aware of it and the problem it’s creating for my life

Hi, I'm 35 and I've only discovered MD this evening and within 1 hour here I am on your post. You're asking if anyone has had professional help is why I'm so interested, I'm  of approaching a psychologist myself. With the talking to myself in daydreaming mode I'm already learning to laugh at myself when I realise, laughter is a powerful medicine! My anger problem is the one I want to Control the most... I believe it will take you time to understand your triggers as I still learning mine which I find useful to note whatever is on my mind down on my phone |
