Someone: My daydreaming negatively impacts my life and I’m pretty sure I’m the only one like this...
Me:
(Side note: if this post ends up being anyone’s first introduction to maladaptive daydreaming and you’d like to learn more, feel free to PM me!!! I’d love to educate you, especially if you think you might have it!)
Boy: Do you have any fantasies? ;)
Me, maladaptive daydreamer: Are you free for the next 5 hours??? My main paracosm is gonna take a LONG time to fully explain
nobody:
me: *paces violently*
My mom: *Shouts at me to stop pacing because my brother is doing homework/everyone is trying to sleep/it’s annoying*
Me: *Keeps pacing violently*
My dad: *tells me to stop pacing because it's 3 AM and everyone in the household, myself included, needs to sleep*
Me: *keeps pacing violently*
I'm just gonna leave this here without context and I'll explain it if it gets notes
Me: I should update my MADD blog!
Me: *daydreams about updating my MADD blog*
Me: This still counts :)
Someone: Tell me about your paracosms and paras!
Me:
me: wow, I can't wait to start preparing for school so that my grades don't suck ass like last year :)
my madd:
me going off to one of my 4000 daydream universes after a long stressful day
What is a VERITBOND?
Separate from a para, a veritbond or a verit is someone/something in your daydreams that you feel a deep connection with, or that you feel has gone beyond being a para.
USAGE
“I was just talking to my veritbond the other day.”
“I love my verit!”
“My verit Ally is really cute.”
“My veritbonds are incredibly important to me.”
EXAMPLES OF VERITBONDS
These are traits and examples of verits that have been expressed by daydreamers!
The veritbond isn’t controlled by the daydreamer. They have full autonomy over themselves and their actions, and are aware they’re a veritbond. The daydreamer describes the verit as a “twin flame”.
The veritbond is totally controlled by the daydreamer. They are totally unaware they are a verit. The daydreamer feels an incredibly deep and undefinable connection to the verit.
The veritbond is described by the daydreamer as fitting with them like a puzzle piece. The daydreamer can’t imagine life without their verit, and is depressed when the verit doesn’t appear in daydreams for stretches of time.
These examples are not the be-all, end-all of what a veritbond is. Whether or not you feel the term fits is totally up to you. If your veritbond doesn’t fit any of this, that’s valid too!
The only limit to the term is being exclusive to maladaptive or immersive daydreamers.
Any questions can be directed to my ask box!
CREDIT
Thank you so much to @madd-memes, @dayscreaming, @nokawolf, @ss-aturatedsunrise, and the entire Daydream Garden discord server for working together to coin the term and the definition. I love you all!!!

Other people: You need to do [activity I don't feel like doing]
Me: hah hah hah... *daydreams for hours insead*
Me: *daydreams about doing said activity with lots of proficiency or having my companions doing it with me/supporting me while I do it* HAHA told you I could do it
*thinks about how deeply I love my paras*

Shiit I've been too busy daydreaming to post on my daydreaming blog and if that's not a MaDD mood I don't know what is
