[Update] How to stop maladaptive daydreaming? It's ruining my life!

So anyways, it's been a while since my first post "How to stop maladaptive daydreaming? It's ruining my life!".

https://www.reddit.com/r/MaladaptiveDreaming/comments/1qaqk6q/how_to_stop_maladaptive_daydreaming_its_ruining/

I'm employed now, managed to land two jobs, quit one and kept the other one which left me with a lot of free time now.

I'm learning how to drive and is planning on getting my driving license this year.

I got accepted into college for accounting and will start school this fall, but I am still upgrading my high classes on the off chance that if I don't like this major I can always change it.

I made some new friends and hang out with them sometimes when our schedules aline.

My sleeping schedule has improved, I usually sleep at the early hours of the night now instead of the crack of dawn.

I still have this emptiness I can't seem to shake off daily. I'm currently going to my doctor to see if this is a physical issue, maybe I'm missing a few vitamins or minerals or whatever and that's why I'm feeling terrible all the time? If it's not a issue caused by anything physical, then I'll just ask my doctor to refer to a therapist or a counselor.

The other month, I had this feeling that I should've somewhere by now, know people I already should've known by now, doing something that should've been near done by now. That day I could focus and actually complete tasks, study and BE PRESENT!

But as the days go on that feeling slowly died down and now I am back to my tired, empty self. I know what it's like to be normal, I just felt it! I just don't know how to be long term!

Does anyone have any tips/advice/ideas on how to not feel tired all the time?
