How I look when I stare at my homework blankly while daydreaming instead of actually doing it.

[sacred-text-on-post-it-notes]

Me: my daydreams aren't that distressing... Maybe I don't have madd, but instead immersive daydreaming..

Also me: *can't listen to a song anymore bc I once daydreamed about a friend dying while listening to it and now I just cry every time I listen to the song*

Also me: *once had a full blown meltdown bc I couldn't think of a daydream plot*

Also me: *once was so absorbed in a daydream I screamed when the doorbell rang*

Also me: *has violent daydreams about hurting someone who has hurt me*

Also me: *tried to not daydream once when I went to sleep but failed after 15 minutes*

Also me: *had multiple moments I had rather stayed home to daydream than go out with friends*

Also me: *daydreams when distressed*

Also me: *daydreams when bored*

Also me: *dissociates a lot and my dreams will feel more like reality than actual reality*

Also me: *daydreams during exciting events bc My Paras Would Like This!! *

Also me: *probably more shit I cant remember*

Me: I'm still not sure if I actually have madd???

Every time I have an intrusive thought my madd is like “oh??? This is what you want??? Okay!! Let’s daydream about it for a week!”

There needs to be negative impacts on daily life for daydreaming to count as “maladaptive”

Newscaster: This horrific event just happened, ruining the lives of several people. The only reaction you should have is fear and disgust.

Me: *already formulating twelve intrusive daydreams around this event* why yes of course, how terrible

a quick madd survey!!

i was really curious abt some basic stuff about madders - how old most of us are, what gender, if we have any co-existing mental illnesses along with madd - so i made this survey at like 1 am!!! but please take it

When your para says something deep and philosophical by themselves, without you thinking about it first

[maladaptive-dreamer]

I constantly justify my wasteful daydreaming by pretending that someday my daydreams will somehow get turned into a book or movie or show

[madd-and-sad]

when you’re daydreaming and wonder how the fuck you got to this daydream so your brain rewinds and scrolls through “recently closed tabs” to the daydream you started with

@yeet-haw-motherfucker This is so cool and I’d love to see my girl Jessabelle! (I’ll probably submit more later but we’ll start with Jessabelle lol) (might get a little overly detailed) She’s the (slightly bitchy) leader of a vampire gang Age: chronologically she like 150+ (born early to mid Victorian era, which is still pretty young by vampire standards) but physically she’s around her early 20s Race: white (very white.) Face: strong jaw line with a heart face shape Nose: your basic “anglo-saxon” nose; straight and maybe a little on the pointed side Eyes: dark brown with semi hooded eyelids Makeup: eye makeup heavily inspired by the flapper girls of the roaring twenties (bc she used to be one and kinda still is one at heart) and full lips with dark red lipstick Clothing: black and red colour scheme, usually a sophisticated knee length dress with a black or red (black if the dress is red, red if the dress is black) leather jacket, black tights, and black chunky high heel ankle boots Body type: short and deceptively skinny Gender: cis woman Sexuality (not really relevant to her appearance but wanted to mention anyway): lesbian Hair: I’ll send a reference pic in a sec (probably along with some outfit ref stuff)

Just maladaptive daydreaming things: taking 12 hours to start a basic daily chore because you spend most of your time daydreaming
