I have been daydreaming from my early childhood I was bored and I didn't have a lot of friends so I used to daydream in my teens this continued to flourish and got worst as I started to experience anxiety.
I normally walk back and forth in a corridor I tried to stop several times but nothing then I fall back.
What should I do ?

I feel really  but so happy when I do them sometimes I feel like I will loose myself to them that I will never enjoy life that I am stuck forever |

I developed Maladaptive Daydreaming the same way. It became a real problem during middle school. Then a few years ago I had a really bad OCD episode and it honestly saved me during those times. I feel really grateful for it but it also feels like I'm just constantly stuck in my head.
The way I daydream is I go outside to my backyard and swing on the swings while listening to music.

I walk back and forth and I also have OCD and it helped me a lot when I had bad intrusive thoughts
