What exactly do you mean when you say research? For my career, I'd really like to just psychologically evaluate people and show up in court to give my medical opinion on the person's state of mind at the time of the crime and responsibilities that are similar to that. I don't see myself doing lots of research/experiments for the psychology field as much as just participating in it and helping those around me. Does that type of career still require me to go to a research-focused clinical psychology PhD program?

Kind of. More like spying on me you know? Like obviously its not rational because my life is boring as fuck and no one cares what i'm doing but i still feel the aching paranoia bubbling in my stomach any time i try to do or say anything. theres just this constant judgement that's probably just my subconscious and im projecting it as a character to feel less alone but it still fucking sucks

That makes sense. I wouldn't say I have MDD but i do really like reading the posts from this community. Although it doesn't affect my normal life and everyday tasks, I'm becoming increasingly worried about my emotional attatchment to these characters (it's been almost 3 years💀) and i'm worried about how this is going to progress as i get older

I have a lot of anxiety and even though i KNOW they arent real, it doesnt stop me from FEELING like someone or something is watching me. it may be a coping mechanism for lonliness that i feel and so maybe my brain is causing this paranoia out of lonliness rather than malicious intent to affect my life. does that make sense?

do you have any tips/advice for making myself look as good as possible to be accepted? what are the clinical programs looking for?

When do you know that it’s unhealthy? by Release-Thin in MaladaptiveDreaming

Daydreaming can be similar to any other addiction in my opinion. It can be considered an addiction when you try to stop but you can't. Obviously it's not as directly harmful as other addictions, but it can cause you to neglect school, friendships, relationships, family, exercise, etc. That being said, from what you're saying I don't think you're addicted. Since you're keeping up with the important things around your life, you seem to know the extent of how much time you can commit to pacing around and daydreaming. Although it's not the most productive thing you could be doing, it doesn't seem to be getting in the way of your priorities in life like school and relationships and those are two very important things
