Welcome to the forum.
I agree it is freeing to know that other people have this too. I can't remember exactly what it was that I googled back in 2015 but suddenly finding a community of people experiencing the same thing made it feel a little less isolating.
Feel free to share your thoughts and experiences with us here, there's no judgement and a lot of understanding people.

Welcome to the forum!
Comorbid mental health conditions are really common in people who have MD, so don't feel alone there. I think that a lot of us have been using daydreaming as a coping skill and its really hard to stop using coping skills, even if they are harmful to us. If you daydream as a coping skill, are there maybe other more healthy coping skills that you could use in place of daydreaming? Developing healthier coping skills could make it so that you don't feel like you have to rely on daydreaming to cope with your everyday life quite so much.
