I always wanted to ask this question to some people who controls their maladaptive daydreaming because for me, im afraid to tell this to my family/friends because they would thing I'm crazy (they think mental health issues persons r all crazy) so how come u get rid of MD when u have judgements from others who don't know this pain......?
I would always have this question when i knew i had MD. Like its my mind and thinking would be easy since its our body but how my mind, my emotion ruin my life even when im the one who is control of my body... One time when my mom was teasing me for some reason but i was frustrated at that time for other reason so i burst out and we had fight. Another time when some group of girls where making jokes, i was daydreaming as usual then i laughed,because of this they though i was stupid. This happens ALOT for me..... I would randomly thing about something and smile or cry like a crazy mental disorder person.It hurts knowing u have MD and cant tell other thinking they will call me crazy even thought i look crazy even trying not to. I hate this. I wasnt like this before. I always knew how to talk, make alot of jokes, and show emotion went i need to but this MD make my life miserable for 5 yeara And being a victim of my own mind sucks. Im 17F and im going to graduate next year if i want a better college i need to stop this ASAP. Anyways hope u too have this question because ive trying to find the answer for a long time now.....
