Hi, I'm Natasha, I'm 16 and I don't really know how things work around here but I just found out about MD like an hour ago and I didn't really know about it and thought I was crazy. I thought it was some form of schizophrenia but I tend to pace around for hours while listening to music and daydreaming about random characters inspired by real life situations. I have been doing so for about 3 years and I just need help on how to stop it. I've had my fair share of suicidal thoughts and panic attacks etc because of worrying so much about this and I feel like its time I deal with this before I loose anymore time, I've become really lazy in terms of school work and tend to procrastinating a lot by daydreaming and my grades aren't horrible but they are not as good as they can be. Anyone who can relate please hit me up

Welcome to daydream in blue. There are ways to help control it better as for stopping it I don't know much about that. There might be someone of this website that you can relate to when you have a better look around. Its a lot to take in a first but there are a lot of threads here with good information and very helpful people here on the website.

Hi Natasha, I think most of us can relate in one way or another. I agree with Katie that I'm not sure stopping it is an option. Daydreaming is a natural occurrence, the maladaptive portion is just what's bothering you. Perhaps it would be easier to control it if you knew why it started happening in the first place. I've spent a great deal of time figuring that out about myself. If you'd like, we can private message and I could help you figure that out. Either way, I hope you find the support that you're looking for here.

Anyone who can relate please hit me up <3 Hi and welcome! You know what is special about your story - you remember when it started (you say, three years ago). Maybe, this could help you to give it up - knowing the way and reasons it started. Many people just remember they have it for their whole life and can't trace it back. Hope you'll find something helpful here :)

Hello Scared welcome to the forum. I think everyone here can relate to procrastinating by daydreaming instead of doing the things they are supposed to be doing in the real world. I hope you find some posts here that will help you or even just come and have a chat with us all when you need some help escaping the suicidal thoughts and panic attacks. x
