tiktok has ruined the term for me, even as a maladaptive daydreamer myself, so i'm really happy to see someone talking about their experiences in detail. it's not quirky or an aesthetic or a trend for you to jump into only to forget about it in a month. it's a disorder. it can ruin your relationships with people and even your whole life in general. thank you for talking about both the positives and the negatives, josh
I'm a normal daydreamer and a introvert but not as extreme as maladaptive daydreamer. But it's nice to know about this.
The most terrifying trait that you discussed about Maladaptive daydreaming is the disconnection. What will happen is I will be working on something stressful or boring like an essay, in my living room and I will start daydreaming one moment later I look around and I am in my bedroom. I had walked into my room totally unaware that I had just went into another area of my apartment. Even though I actively went to another area go my house my daydreaming made me completely unaware of it.
As a maladaptive daydreamer, I relate to you a lot. The only thing that's different is that I sort of act out my imagination (walk around, talk to myself). I feel like at this point I've lost my sanity
Bro so same
i do that all the time wtf
I've been doing that ever since I was a child and l can't seem to stop
i do that all the time. When im thinking of that song or daydream in my head ill start running around or mouth whats going on in the daydream without realizing it at first.
as a maladaptive daydreamer I'm excited to watch this
In my personal experience, I don't put myself into scenarios, I put characters from a work of fiction I like. It does get in the way a lot, but I still like it. The music thing happens too
@@roguesriot147 same, i can't self insert myself into them so its just a mash of all the characters i like , like a really big crossover fic.
Does anyone else imagine that they are their favorite character when maladaptive daydreaming. Like you project all your problems like SH or Depression onto those characters, and make faces and kinda act out what the characters are doing? And it changes with my hyperfixations. Just Me?
Now I think I'm a maladaptive daydreamer myself because sometimes in the middle of school or at home I start imagining characters in my head while doing something or listening to music which now I learned something new about myself ^^
Sometime I just day dream to just get inspo to draw or animate.... Somethimes it is very vivid.. IDK HOW THO
Oh dang. I think I might me a maladaptive daydreamer. I do all of these things. I always thought I was just really imaginative.
to be honest i don’t know how it started 😭 i just used to watch anime edits, go to the living room and go in circles just imagining older evil naruto and good sasuke fight, and then when i got headphones i started imagining myself as a kpop idols and blasting music while going around my room this time, i stopped doing it in the living room cause it was embarrassing 😭 i still do it everyday for hours and hours with attack on titan character and it’s just an escape for me
I am a maladaptive daydreamer and it's always been a really big part of my life because I make characters or use characters from any type of media I consume and put them in different scenarios or stories and it's the thing that occupies my mind more than anything. Most of my daydreams are pretty intense and I sometimes put music to drown out the outside noise so I can focus better. Ever since I was young my maladaptive daydreaming has been sort of 'enhanced' by the fact that I'm autistic and it's sort of made it worse, because I hyperfocus on all of my daydreams and start unconsciously pacing and mumbling to myself and when I was younger that led to a lot of bullying and reprimand from the people around me, leading to even more daydreaming to sort of escape everything. Discovering this diagnosis really helped me feel less alone. I'm glad to see more people talking about it, I love your content Joshie, wish you all the best!
I used to do it all the time. My mom would say I was very innocent with an active imagination... until I was 16 when i realized it should keep it to myself. I would influence my little sisters and cousins into my imaginary worlds. I still struggle with it at 27. I get lost in my thoughts and will go through sencerios in my head and never do them irl bc I feel like I've already done them. I do allow myself to get lost in the sauce when I'm alone listening to music or painting.
Interesting, I actually have something similar! I have absent seizures, witch means one minute I’ll be reading and the next I’ll be staring into nothing. I will not hear anyone or anything, and I won’t see what’s in front of me unless it’s actively moving. Saddest part is I don’t dream during it, I just lose time. I take medication to control it, so it’s nice to see some people with similar experiences.
I’m so happy I’m not the only one who does this because I did this.
Yes! I can totally see myself in this. Also, talking to those imaginary characters out loud 👀🤦🏻♀️🫣
I have constantly daydreamed deep meaningful conversations with my crush
Oh wow, the part about not being allowed to go outside and having fixed time to watch tv is so relatable. Probably the time where I started daydreaming myself.
When I was in school, I found it strange how others can just visit each other. It gets overwhelming in a society where most people are extroverts and don't respect personal space.
And yes, my daydreams got more intense and longer when I started watching anime and listening to music.
By the time I started university I became a complete lone wolf and was seen as strange and weird for not being in a friend group constantly.
Dude I never knew I had this until this started explaining everything I do when I daydream. From the songs and replaying I DO LITERALLY ALL THESE THINGS
From watching this vidoe I definitely feel I have the same experiences though less extreme as it doesn't happen in social situations more when I'm alone or when I had a particular boring lecture but very much the song thing if the daydream doesn't hit just right we gotta do it again , its definitely interesting to hear it from a different perspective though glad you made this vidoe
Wowwwww 11 minutessss animation 💕
I could relate to this so much cause I only daydream when Im at university and the lectures are so boring that my mind automatically goes into daydreaming mode and i realise it too late. I mostly create my own fanfictions while daydreaming and Ive been doing this since i was very young and the concerning thing is that at that time I thought that it was normal to daydream like that. But now that Im a bit older Im starting to understand its not. Resently Ive started to daydream about how Ill kill myself and for how often that happens i might do it maybe. I dont know who to turn for help cause my family hates me anyways.. sorry to dump this on you...
I didn’t even think I was a maladaptive daydreamer until I saw this
This explains a lot, actually
Bro, I used to have such a big problem with it. I'm not sure if it counts, but I actually still always have daydreams going on in my mind. It's like those people who listen to podcasts while they do chores or work
omg i feel so seen! ive had maladaptive day dreams so bad i have lost a sense of time, like thinking months had passed in the span of a few days then panicing when I realized its only been a few days
maladaptivve day dreaming is also a trauma response and coping mechanism
I have been aware of my maladaptive daydreaming for a while, but I realised only a few days ago how bad it has gotten when I was sitting in front of my pc and just daydreamt for several hours and every now and then I would look at the clock and see another hour had passed without me noticing. That was almost frightening how unaware of time I had gotten.
My daydreaming gets triggered by music as well, so every time I listen to it, I start pacing around and thinking. Though I still usually have a solid awareness of my surrounding and my thoughts follow one big storyline regardless of what I'm listening to.
You talking about me!!! 😂😂😂
Omg same! Even now! I still am like that but honestly sometimes when I do daydream I end up too stuck far up in the clouds I fall asleep.. 😅 I kinda hate this ability.. 🥲 the daydreams I have sometimes become a video idea. This is so relatable and specific so in detail!
Yeah, I'll also have to admit that this daydreaming ability has helped me a lot creativity wise.
@@JelliesWorld Josh-senpai responded again! :D
Also- SO TRUE! ✨
I kinda can relate to this, especially picturing yourself in your favorite movies, tv shows, books
I don't know if this applys to me, but there are times when I get lost in thought when I do something. For example, one time I was on the couch watch tv when I zoned out and let my brothers slip pass me and get out the house (they're toddlers btw) everyone was freaking out but we found them 30 min later and I still feel bad to this day
I won't say my daydream is getting worse but it 'grows'. I usually wrote whatever that was on my mind like what powers should I gave to my friends etc, but that last till I reached 5th grade in elementary school where I decided to draw because my brain thought that writing is wasn't enough anymore. I need visual cause I don't want to forget the things I imagined before.
omg I was just searching about it
I made my whole second life for all anime and other shows I watched or books I read so that I interact with these characters and be part of their world and group, with songs I imagine myself and pop idol singer lol its been too real since I was in my late teens early 20s
Has this maladaptive daydreaming ever effected your studying in childhood? For me, because of these fake scenarios I can't concentrate on studies sometimes and can't remember a shit on exam day.
Maladaptive daydreaming is a huge part of my life as well n I shall never remove it no matter what, sure it gets in the way at times, but I started losing my mind when I don't escape for a long time, LIKE BRO my imagination is soo much better then reality, can't be atheltic? BOOM imagine it, academic validation? BOOM go get it, want friends? BOOM u got unlimited ones create them exactly u wanted it to be, don't like what's happening to me cus of 1 decision? BOOM redo it, can't cry but want a reason to cry? BOOM torture the shi- out of them n cry
It's fun n better then reality, my best friend, my coping mechanism
I have seen a lot of people mentioning music, but I started these intense daydreaming when I became the middle child at 5 n was just given responsibilities instead of attention, so I started escaping there but I also had no access to music back in the time, so somehow I can still do it without music, but at times when I listen to a *very* particular part of the song, it gives this feel n my imagination just starts running wild n I get soo many ideas, so music thing is there for me, but I don't use it cus I just never had access to music, even now it's limited
But in conclusion, I like to call it a drug addiction my coping mechanism n escape from reality that I won't trade for anything, plus all those pacing in circles keeps in shapes cus who can afford or have the mental energy to exercise.
I didn't even know there was a term for I literally do this everyday I just thought it was imagining or regular daydreaming. I used to literally daydream like I was sleeping it just naturally happens hours of daydreaming and story building all from the comfort of my mind then all the sudden class is over and I've missed the entire assignment and the lesson I just thought that's what daydreaming was.
PS. I swear I was just watching your video about escalators how the hell is it been 4 years 💀
Haha cool this is just awesome
Today I came to know that this also has a name 😅 I literally start day dreaming anywhere at anytime anything 🙆 and suddenly O damm the time
This whole video is calling me out-🙄😒🤠💅✨💕
I'm almost there but it doesn't mess with my social life. I take time out of my day specifically for daydreaming while walking and listening to music. All my friends know this and are very supportive. I do so many retakes of the scenes to get them just right or because I'm having too much fun and I have cried. A lot. Mostly they're horny ones or romantic storylines. Few action scenes and philosophical ones mixed in
I've been trying to write down some of my more active daydreams at home to practice writing fanfics,
But when I'm at work i also daydream anime characters hanging out and cheering me on!
Like, sometimes I'll imagine L from deathnote is watching me on the security cameras because he thinks i might be kira lol
Oh my gosh this is me
Where were all this time ma gorilla, im sooo happy to find your channel 😢
When I was a new show or rewatch an old one I like to daydream that I can go into the world of the show with knowledge of all the events, either as myself or like reincarnate into a character, a good character or a bad one and become allies with the mcs. And in every world I go into I can only have 3 powers with me besides the knowledge so I can prevent characters from dying and stop villains sooner in the show lol. I normally go with immortality so I can stay in the world however long I want and leave whenever I'm done, healing so I can heal characters that were supposed to die or help the main characters, and either an inventory with slots or the ability to restart the day from the beginning if there's a problem and I need a do over to save someone. I like choosing worlds like The Flash, or a historical manhwa or a show with no super powers or abilities but I have them and am able to help the characters defeat bad ones and have the upper hand cuz I have no martial arts knowledge lol. Sometimes I see a scenario in a show and I stop it to go lay in bed and imagine myself in the scenario and what I would do. Daydreaming is hella fun but can also be exhausting. Sometimes I zone out and just daydream when I'm doing something like eating or when I'm playing a game and I forget what I was doing and it can go on for hours._. tho sometimes when something is stressful or I need to pass the time daydreaming is nice. And other times I daydream about a conversation i could potentially have with a friend then later have to remember whether or not I actually had that convo with them.
I've always wondered if I have maladaptive daydream. Because my daydreams are very intense and I guess looking back they did get in the way of things. But nowadays I seem to have it under control. I still daydream, but I do it like just before bed as I'm falling asleep or when I'm on a long car ride and have nothing to do (don't worry I'm not the driver lol). Basically when I don't have to do anything. So I don't really know...
But I can definitely relate to some of the experiences, I loved to daydream about being in my fav animes/talking to my fav anime characters. I sometimes still do.
I daydream, but I don’t think mine is the maladaptive type you’re describing. To me, it happens when I’m trying to draw comics… and I space out, turning my 12-page chapter into a four volume multiverse… and then I snap back and realize there’s no way I could draw all of that. So in my case, the daydreaming only gets in the way of concentrating the story.
Idk if this is off topic, but doesanyone else find it easier to get emotional (esp sad) over fictional stories than things that happen irl? Sometimes in my life i feel so disconnected or cold, but then i can connect so easily to my fav animes so like what?
i DO THIS ALL THE TIME. i bet you have ADHD, all this is called Mental Minecraft to me. its also why I "sleep" 14 hours a day.
I recently found out I sufer from this too and I'm glad im glad im not alone
I also make some comfortable space and time in my day to daydream usually before i sleep or at the bus so I don't get guilty cause its not getting in the way of anything 😌✨(the only problem is when i see someone i know in the bus and i have to socialize instead of daydreaming 😭😂)
this is hitting me hard, I also having too but didn't research about it. I always daydream between studies and work and I cant focus too. but you already get through a lot and whenever I saw your, I feel good and I feel that I am not the one. I am not introvert and bookworm and genius like you but I like to be in my world. i want to be in my world but i am facing a lot in reality.
Everytime you said the symptoms that I always had in my mind, I keep saying: Yessss!!!! That's what I had.
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to call myself a maladaptive daydreamer anymore, as I've kinda been able to subdue it (ie its not the only thing i want to do anymore)
But all the same thanks for talking about it!
love ur vids as always
Everytime i change clothes after a shower, I would suddenly walk around and daydream- my mom had to snap me out of it because the constant walking back and forth made her dizzy.
I am too a maladaptive daydreamer it's not as bad to be considered a problem for me ( as I have other issues which r worst ) I walk around my house talking to myself , saying dialogues / acting them out I also used to make cloths and use other objects to make it more real and accurate. Maladaptive daydreaming is more of a coping mechanism for me but it's worst for my brother as he does it more often and get really into it . making story line from a songs or I used to choose which story suits the best for the song and play it in my mind . I still do this and really it is fun . Also I dont insert myself in the daydream but i do act out all the other characters I made .
I also a had single story line that daydream alot about when I was 6 to all the way till age 13- ( yep the story when on for 7 years )
( also is it only me who just can't speak to myself in my mind I need like verbally talk to myself )
This makes so much sense now. I do this everyday and all day. I always imagine me with a group of 3 friends, and we do all sorts of stuff together...I need real friends lol
whaaaaat no this is completelyyy normal what do you meeeaannnnn everyone feels like thisss
Hiiiii love ur videos! Ur amazing!
I think I definitely fit a lot of the things described here
Ah man this sounds very relatable....
Why are you calling me out like this?!😅😂😮😶
I do this ALL the fricking time!! Average a few hours a day, except I’m not in the stories and neither are any real people. Same fictional characters nonstop past few years.
I discovered the term a while back but I haven’t done anything about it cause like you, I find it enjoyable. It does make my depression worse bc it basically encourages me to stay in bed away from people, but I don’t really wanna get rid of it even with all the problems it causes cause it’s like my drug- SHOULD I do something about it I? Yeah probably, we all should, but I’m not gonna 😂
ive also got this. I remember where im walking the dog with my sister, and my mind is just wandering while i keep going. Suddenly, somewhere in my mind, im having a pretend conversation with my sister in the exact same situation we're really in, and then i try to talk to her for real about what I was daydreaming about. She doesn't know what im talking about of couse and it just gets weird. I've done this a second time with her in the store. Its gotten pretty bad
I Don't know if I have but do share alot of these symptoms so
Learn something new about myself everyday 😌
That explains a lot of things in my life 😅 oh no
I used to have maladaptive daydreams. There are times I miss it, because I had some great stories going! I stopped daydreaming so much when my life began to stabilize, and it fully faded when I got into a long-term, cohabitating relationship. I find myself drifting back into old habits a little when my mind is free (like when driving, which is so dangerous!) but it hasn't gone far enough to be considered maladaptive.
Anyway, this is the first video of yours I've seen, and the other videos on your channel look interesting too!
I can relate to this in some ways. I also daydream about picturing me in cartoons and movies and daydream about songs and pictures scenes. Even though I do need to focus on my goals and my artwork 😅
Im actually curious whatttttt scenario you daydreaming about and maybe you can make a video about it, id totally appreciate that 🙏 💕 cause i think i do relate but i only had that real life scenario daydreaming when i was asleep, in my dream, some wild one some weird one some ridiculous one and its a loong chapter, literally last night my dream was quite wild and sad for me
This has always been in the back of mind, but always brushed it off thinking I was just being dramatic. But I don't think you're supposed to day dream so intently that your body tenses at a high pact scene in your mind, and get painful cramps. I kid you not I was in the middle of class day dreaming of this super dramatic fight, and then BAM so much pain coming from my left calf that pushed me out of the dream. Kind of like a period cramp type of pain....but in your calf.
Anyway ty Josh for bring this topic to light 👍
It makes sense now! I daydream a lot but it never got to a point that I daydream for hours. It will last for small intervals like 5-10 mins then sometimes it will last like 20-30 minutes. Due to this I cannot fall asleep easily and it will take me an average of an hour to fall asleep.
I have all the other symptoms like I can't focus easily, I have all the characters, backstories and plotlines etc. I also I'm going through depression (if you would call it that because I pretty much self diagnosed myself because my parents don't give a f*ck about my mental health) for the last 3-4 years because my mom went into the hospital and everything went downhill (she is fine now but still I suffer a lot daily due to the responsibilities and the constant pressure as the oldest child). I even sometimes pushed myself to SH but never did it....
I have like a whole vivid imagination but I'm planning to write all those down since it won't bother me (I hope so- aha-)
But still it makes me happy about someone talking about it and reading all these comments having some similar daydream experiences like me ❤️✨
ok i do the same thing but it doesn't interfere with my daily stuff i just cannot think about anything nice while people are around
I daydream a lot, but I have it under control:
1) I write the most frequent daydream, so they don't pop-up evry minutes
2) I have specific moment for my daydreams to go wild, so they don't interfer when I don't want to
3) When I notice that I have to do something I try to avoid daydream, especially if I don't have someone else telling me to remaind me I have to do this thing
My Mind is not as secure as i thought it was. People interrupt in it.
I think I daydream this way everyday for a few minutes. I manage to keep it under control by doing it only before sleeping and I fall alseep while doing it. It's quite pleasant, I think
I do this all the time holy s***
I relate to this alot, but I feel like its not maladaptive for me quite yet. I work very intensely on a project (im a graphic designer too) but then I'll give myself 15-20min to daydream, then work intensely on the next project. So I've found ways to fold it into my work schedule. But I do feel like this might be a reason why im always late to work or why Im more depressed as an adult. As an adult I cant daydream as much as I want to and it makes me feel disconnected from 'my world'. I have to spend so much time in 'crappy reality' that it gets me down. I think its something that creative people have to just learn to manage, but I dont ever want to stop daydreaming. I think its healthy to give our minds the creative workout it needs sometimes
I feel like I'm getting called out. XD
Btw, is anyone else thinking J.D from Scrubs?
I never thought of my daydreaming habit as a maladaptive daydreaming disorder. But what the fuck, I'm relating to everything I-
I'm not sure if my daydreaming habits can be described as maladaptive daydreaming but ima share my experiences. So usually I'm always up and about and looking for smth to keep my mind busy when I'm surrounded by ppl. But when I'm at home and there's not many ppl in the house and I'm left to my own devices, I lie down and just daydream or I pace around the table while daydreaming. I actually tripped over the coffee table at a stage bc of how deep in my mind I was
Im constantly having a problem with distinguishing fiction and reality (specifically with dreams) but I never thought this would happen with a daydream. I had a talk with a friend today abt smth I thought my aunt said to them and they just. Didn't remember it. And I was like "wdym, I'm sure they said smth like that to you-" and they just shook their head. I was guessing I probably daydreamt that scene since I usually have many daydreams that involve that one friend (and she's only ever met my aunt once so it was unlikely she just forgot abt it)
There's also the whole thing of ppl asking me why I always look so lost in thought. My excuse was "I'm just hyper focused", meanwhile I was imagining myself being Lady Macbeth
Does anyone listen to music and just walk around back and forth, instead of dancing?
Count me IN 🙋
I think I have also Maladaptive , maybe
I found my people🥺
WAIT!!!! ASIA DONT ONLY CONTAINS THAT MANY COUNTRIES WHERE IS INDIA WHERE IS IT IN THE CLUB DAWN UPDATE IT .......
I am just as extream as you but I am a bit more social at school less social at home
I think you should try lucid dreaming
