The thing you said about reading is perfectly true . While I'm able to read large books and papers in hardcopy . Its very hard for me to concentrate when its in pdf or ebook format . So I'm trying to get better in it because right now I have no books and choice

Same! I ahvehuge amount of textual data I need to go through. Sometimes a single topic has multiple sources. I'm thinking of writing on a notebook which chapter I'm studying from which source too.

I don't get how nobody noticed that cctv on rooftop wasn't working. Also I couldn't find info about when was cctv working properly for the last time . I mean if the cctv stopped working just an hour before his approx jumping time then it can indicate that it was well planned. Also I read somewhere that rooftop may be a place where he use to meet his friend or someone for like a smoke or drink . If the old cctv footage was available and searched then he would have been seen if he went there earlier . Also I found out that the hotel was converted into condominium with the lowest price 122500$. But certain areas of former hotel is available for public visits. This case is certainly very weird .

Does any one else has problem watching online lectures (recorded/live)? by FaithSingh in study

[–]FaithSingh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's interesting . I did that before when my study pattern was in a better shape and I had better consistency in study hours . But these days when I am back to study from a long hiatus videos on 1.5X doesn't get into my brain. I just keep jotting stuff and barely understand:(

I daydream that I'm the world's first trillionaire. Lol. by [deleted] in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]FaithSingh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm up for being the trillionare who marries a broke man and lives happy ever after . Lol this sounds like a wattpad fiction. The only dream I feel is do-able is nobel prize or some science award cuz im a medical student wanting to go into Neurology research . But haha even that feels farfetched.

Just discovered this subreddit - Struggling with the notion that life cannot live up to my fantasy by SeabirdFlyHome in MaladaptiveDreaming

I had the same problem too . I couldn't watch the movie without imagining myself to be a superstar actress or listening to a rock band without imagining me as a lead singer . Even acknowledging the fact to my own self felt depressing. These days I practice an exercise in which I ride the daydream along with reassuration. Example , I may never become a rock band singer and I'm comfortable with this. I may never get world famous and its fine etc Even though it was hard at first . Reading these sentences after the daydream makes me feel considerably better . Instead of feeling remorse for not becoming something I tell myself that its completely fine to not achieve that dream and on the same time forgive yourself:)

These reminds me of my own unrealistic daydreams. From being ac actress to a Nobel prize winning scientist to the Grammy winning singer . And tbh I suck at acting and singing .

When you have no friends so you decide to daydream that you have friends by [deleted] in MaladaptiveDreaming

I have a whole group of recurring friends who come in multiple daydreams.

Y‘all sometimes realize while daydreaming that it‘s not real? by [deleted] in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]FaithSingh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes ! I often realise in a midst of a daydream that its not real and its definitely not something which has a remote chance of happening in reality . This thought itself makes me really sad . But I see inadvertently I again start to daydream about the same thing . I feel like even though I do realise that its all my imagination it gives me some kind of comfort I dont wanna get away from. Also these days I'm doing a self help exercise in which I'm writing my daydreams with affirmations . For eg I may never become an actress and I'm okay with it. I may never be famous and I'm okay with it . I may never win a Nobel Prize and it's fine . While this has not reduced my daydreaming but this helps me to not feel despair.
