@khepri44: There‘s lots of useful tips on how to withstand the addictive quality of maladaptive daydreaming, but what you also need to ask yourself is: what essentially motivates you to escape reality less? For me, it‘s all about building: building a vision, building skills, strengths, new beliefs, and so on. #maladaptivedaydreaming #daydreaming #escapism #SelfImprovement #lifedesign
immersive daydreaming is not bad and you don't need to get rid of it
maladaptive daydreaming on the other hand...

And what if there is nothing that could replace daydreaming for me? I travel, I meet new people, I have dreams, I work, pursue other passions and yet at the end of the day no matter how much fun I am having in the moment, there is always this part of me that would rather just daydream and be alone. I force myself to pursue life and it's not bad obviously, but at the end of the day I still go back to daydreaming, partially because it's safe and I am in control, but also because it's the most fun I can ever have.

But how can we survive real life if we can never escape it? No matter how much we try, our real life will never be like our daydreams.

Even when I was in the best moments of my life, I day dreamed. Idk how to explain. I will just keep it for later. It’s crazy.

The first step to doing this is accepting the reality you’re in even if it’s painful at first and have the belief that you can and will grow

Maybe it would be a harm reduction technique for me to continue to daydream for now but stop daydreaming about personal competence/mastery. Or consciously shifting the focus away from me and others’ perception of me.
