Good morning everybody! I hope this is the right thread for my introduction. I will be as brief as possible: I am a 46-year old man from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I found this site last night. I have been a maladaptive daydreamer since I was 15 I guess. I am a little bit ashamed to talk about my fantasies. Among other things, they might be about my being famous, etc. I am also an OCD sufferer, among other things. I was on medication for three years but left it a few months ago because it had so many side effects. It didn't help with my OCD but it did help with my maladaptive daydreaming. I took mainly olanzapine and fluoxetine. Sadly, now fantasies are back in full strength. I really don't know how to manage them. I try not to listen to music, for example, for it exacerbates them. Most of the things I learned, I took them from the Internet. Sadly, mental health professionals are not very good here. Psychoanalysis continues to be the main approach in Buenos Aires.
I hope I can help you and you can help me. You can ask whatever you want. Have a great day, people!!!

Welcome to the forum!
I, and many others here on the forum, also have OCD, so you’re definitely not alone in having both MD and OCD.
