~All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream. ~

identifying a maladaptive coping mechanism is so bitter sweet like that’s great now i know what i need to stop doing. but that’s literally my something

[johnnyfoursandco]

Maladaptive daydreaming be like... I gotta stop this. I'm losing track of the hours and I haven't gotten off the couch since I woke up. Everything is running through my fingers. I'm not thirsty but I know I haven't had any water. I'm going to blink and it will be dark outside. But. My touys...

"Can you explain this gap in your resume?"

Oh yeah, I was busy overthrowing the government on another planet.

When you want to daydream about your fictional other but PEOPLE WON'T STOP TALKING TO YOOOOOU

Hey don't cry. 100+ silly guys in Situations running around in your head ok?

“I have maladaptive daydreaming”

Kinda sad, implies that something sucky caused you to choose this coping mechanism, boring

“I am haunted by visions of an alternate reality”

Cool, mysterious, unique, makes you sound like some kind of sci-fi witch or wizard

[maladaptivedaydreamingculture]

Maladaptive Daydream Culture is trying to remind yourself its not real when the daydreams become too much and you can't tell what's reality anymore

yeah sure breakups are hard but have you ever seen something you know someone will enjoy but you’re not good enough friends yet to send it to them

[vampurrring]

sorry for complaining so much it’s just that I need to

[konoko]

i don't want to sound like a slut, but i need some human interaction

[ladyoftheharbour]

the woke media won't tell you this but actually hanging out with your friends is fun and if you do it you will probably stop wanting to cry nonstop

[saturns-dream]

I've been having a horrible year :(

[kazehiki]

anybody else going through life feeling like a dog that wasn't socialized enough as a puppy

[forestaflame]

overestimating how much you mean to someone really fucks you in the head

Shoutout to the MADDers whose daydreams get dark or weird or kinky. The MADDers who are terrified at the thought of mind readers when their daydreams get dark or sexual in public. You’re not bad or disgusting for having daydreams that aren’t happy and fluffy and clean 24/7. Even if you’re daydreaming about things you would never admit to anyone, not even to your friends or partners or therapists, your thoughts are not what define you. Your actions are. You’re fine and you’re not alone.
