Acting

i do the same thing and i’ve actually been caught doing it several times by my family, i always feel so embarrassed lolll. i usually dont even notice im acting it out, it just happens naturally when i just get rly into it

I actually do the exact same thing.. I pace around, and imagine myself in a new world. Sometimes I catch myself doing it all around me. I had no idea that was a symptom of MMD

I like to have headphones in my ears, whenever I’m outside. If someone sees my lips moving , they might just assume I’m on a phone call, useing a headset mic.

I was wondering if MD was actually the correct term for what I have, because I rarely read about acting. I don't pace, I usually just sit on my bed. I don't rock back and forth or shake my head either. I really just talk out loud and act out scenes like in a movie. I also find myself repeating sentences over and over again, just to get the tone of voice or accent right. I have done this ever since I was 10y old and it never went away. I have been hiding it from my boyfriends, husband, friends, but my family did caught me upon multiple occasions when I was younger. I told my brother about it recently and he didn't seem to think it was a bad thing. He admired the imagination that goes into it. And that's true, people with MD do have a way of creating storylines out of thin air.
Anyway, just so nice to read this here.

I'm actually experiencing this too. I love books and I love watching films. So basically, those are the things that usually triggers me to reenact those scenarios that got me aside from MY OWN SCENARIOS say for example:I feel like crying,so I'll be like rereading some books that already sents me to tears or use any social media platforms to feat with my current mood or to be more precise, gather some new ideas to be the content of my DD. And I'll be repeating them if there's a so-called errors or i just feel like it. However, mine's doesn't usually require big movements of being on act and out loud voices. Only whispers and subtly. It's actually contradicting cuz I love doing it at night inside my room only for most of it reason behind my lack of sleep. Then at daytime, it's either I find time to be in my room just for that or I'll do it where I stand with just my MIND AGAIN, WITH ALMOST UNNOTICEABLE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AND MOVEMENTS that I think I've already mastered through the years cuz I've only experienced being caught once in my years of existence and it happened when I was still four by my grandpa. He caught me reenacting a nagging wife to her husband while carrying my doll as a baby which I got to the drama I'd watched on TV🙈 I was really ashamed and embarrassed bc of that and from then on, I learned the Art of Subtle.

Ps. glad I'm not the only one.

Hi, I do the same thing. Actually that's something that has bothering me a little bit because most people with MMD that explain their experiences on the internet say that they pace, and I don't pace, I act out my daydreams and that made me think my MD wasn't MD. Sometimes I immerse myself so deep in my scenarios that I caught myself talking REALLY loud.

Ps: sorry if there are any grammar mistakes, english is not my first language
