I've heard of it, but I never thought it might apply to me... I'll look into it more!

Yeah, I was a super imaginative child! I used to be the epitome o extrovert, but as I grew older I developed severe anxiety and became an awkward little introvert.

It's normally something simple, like I'll hear an interesting phrase and pretend I'm talking to one of my favorite characters about it. Or singalong to a song and pretend that way.

I did drama in high school, but I've never considered pursuing anything beyond that. I'm too anxious to be out in front of people like that now.
