I went to my therapist and went though my daydreaming bit by bit told her I am getting support from other people and when I started going though it all she went though some important details in encouraging your brain to stay in the present.
Note: My MD is not as bad as it use to be so it will take time and other things may come into play when you decide that you want to get some support in dealing with it but here is what she thinks will help me though it and she said it might be advice for anyone here too.
Practice mediation: This is really good to teach you how to stay in the present and it helps to relax all your taughts too. she gave me a website headspace is the name of it.
Write down your stories to help get them out and down on paper and is good for creative side that we may have..
Set small goals for yourself and work your way up.
plan a time for your daydreaming each day limit yourself to how long you are daydreaming and try and stick with it put it aside for when you really need it.
Work on the urges of why it is you need to daydream
Go out and do more things with people that you are comfortable to be around.
We also talked about my characters and she explained why people make up imaginary friends I won't go into it as MD seems to be something more than what she said. Well I might be wrong.
I only had an hour and went though some of my things I needed dealt with. She did talk a good bit about these topics but can't go into much detail as it was to do with linking it to do with my issues.
I talked about how CBT helped my anxiety and how that eased my daydreaming a good bit seem to be the route to what was bothering me.
If you have any questions on any of the advice she gave me let me know hope this helps.
