me in a nutshell

[the-worlds-gone-madd]

When your daydream consists of only already existing, well developed and thought out, three-dimensional fictional characters from a TV show and your one (1) random parame:

[maladaptive-dreamer]

Annoying things about MaDD no one talks about

aside from the obvious…

accidentally leave my earbuds at home? thats it. I’m done for the day. literally my day is ruined.

I daydream even when I’m happy so that means if I find class material boring OR exciting, imma daydream

when I get stuck in periods of low daydreaming, I literally feel lost and useless

car rides? if they’re not AT LEAST a half hour long I get irritated

I view homework/studying/preparing for my future AS WASTES OF TIME because they aren’t daydreaming

I probably seem like an utter jerk because I zone out so often when I’ve been in a conversation for a long time

[ptsd-tiger]

if i ever start crying in public it’s because i’m in my maladaptive daydreaming realm and I just created in my mind someone that loves and supports me despite the fact that i’m horrible trash that ruins everything

Clues that your daydreaming is maladaptive

- You turn to daydreaming as your one coping mechanism (or maybe you have one or two more but you never/rarely use them, opting to daydream instead)

- You daydream even in very happy or important situations (ex. parties, concerts, performances, ceremonies)

- You cannot listen to music without daydreaming

- You would rather be daydreaming than spending time with people who you love

- Your daydreams are so intense that you sometimes feel like you physically felt a sensation you daydreamed about

- You waste valuable time daydreaming (ex. when you should be sleeping, when you could be doing your homework, when you had planned to work out)

You ever read a really good fanfic and think “Ah, yes, I must incorporate the best aspects of this fic into my highly unrealistic romantic daydreams” or is that just me?
