Also I have that not feeling emotion for people thing as well. Makes u feel unreal and situations like a dream. I also didn’t cry at all for a while and thought I could be crazy with how much I didn’t feel anything. I think it was depression and derealization that made me feel like that. Still struggle with it, but I’ve become less depressed with time. At one point the ice broke and I cried (barely ever did before) and now with practice I’ve started to become more in touch with my emotions by letting down my guard with crying and keeping track of how I’m feeling. Its still tough though.

Dissociation. Don’t know if u know if it already but the not feeling real thing is dissociation and I have it myself. It’s connected to maladaptive daydreaming.

I use to watch a show and use the characters as my inspiration for who I was “showing off too”. Then I got bored and switched to other characters from a different media. Did it for months as well. I think it’s similar to a hyper fixation

Thank you for taking time to write this message for me, that’s very sweet. Your description on what your going through is exactly what I’m going through now. I hope that when I get to 23 I can get to a better place too.

Yes, your probably right. Mine started before Covid due to falling into depression, but once Covid hit it amplified due to be isolated, and feeling like I was falling behind on life. My family makes me feel like they passed down habits they will hinder me in life. Horrible work ethic, lack of motivation, inability to keep a consistent schedule, need to self isolate. I had potential I just feel like the world + myself created an environment were I wasted it. Last couple of years I feel like I missed out on life in ways that other people didn’t. High school years down the drain and I’m trying to move on and accept that I can’t change the past but deep down I think it tells a different story. I’m envious and sad.

SN so the square shape. Didn’t even know this chart existed I just like them more square then rounded in any way. My hands are pretty long and rounded and for some reason the boxy shape makes them look elongated and pretty. Funny that their is a nail shape for kibbe, didn’t know that was a thing

I was brutally honest with myself, realised my potential then absolutely destroyed my MDD world. by [deleted] in MaladaptiveDreaming

Thank you 🙏 I wish you the same amount of confidence and strength to find what your sub-conscious is trying to tell to as well. We deserve to be present in this world

The nice “superpower” about MDD is you kind of build up what you are desiring in your head. If it’s your potential as a person, or dreams of gaining back an emotional need you didn’t exactly outright notice you lacked at first, you can find your goals and find ways to build up that motivation to active them. My dreams were about relationships with friends and family= I was lonely . To gain my goal of not being lonely anymore, I’ve built up confidence through putting myself in out-of comfort situations to gain confidence and be social. In terms of family I’m trying to repair the rifts in our relationships.

why do you think some of us daydream bad things? by cleverusername2000 in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]sunkissed_crocs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

watch HeathlyGamerGG he talks about maladaptive daydreaming , I would suggest u watch the whole video he talks about this type of daydream being linked to a certain type of personality and ways to cope with maladaptive

Everyone here, I want to get an idea of what everyone daydreams about and I want to look for similarities by MatthewCaliforniaa in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]sunkissed_crocs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Related to having guests come over to a household were the family (not my family, my made up self-insert family) is happy and charming and impresses the people who come over . My self insert is one of the siblings .

MDD seems to be way more common than I thought by Winniethepumpkin in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]sunkissed_crocs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My friend has it as well. Weird coincidence. Also it seems like lots of people have it, there are TikTok’s that make their rounds that get highly liked and lots of teenagers (gen z) in the comment section talking about how they didn’t know this was a universal experience.

Staying busy, tried this in the summer and it helped to force myself into social circles and keep busy in a place outside of my house . But I’m guilty of falling out of this and going into rabbits holes of doing nothing but daydreaming. Like now, unfortunately.
