Is it really maladaptive daydreaming if I enjoy it/find comfort in it?
I see some people post things on here about how it takes over their lives and makes them miserable and I feel a bit guilty because I'm not sure I feel like that. I feel awful for people who are having a hard time with it.
I haven't felt great today (hormones and other things...we won't get into that) and I couldn't wait to walk home from work, put my headphones in and go into my own little dream world. I know it sounds sad but I promise it's not. I'm not disconnected from reality, I just find comfort in a escaping from it in my own little dreamworld sometimes.
The only time it really makes me my miserable is when I have these moments sometimes where I realise my real life will never be as good as my dreamworld (although looking on the bright side, I'm sometimes delulu enough to make myself believe that anything is possible lol 😂). When my mental health is really, really bad that can mess with me a little bit.
Just something I was thinking about earlier. I'm really sorry to everyone who is suffering because of MD and I really hope you all heal 🩷
