I’m really curious AGAIN.. I have a single world that all the silly characters are in and small things change for AU’s. Even then I know a lot of people have stuff from other media instead of something from scratch (??)

FOLLOW UPS bc I really just like interacting with people..

To those who answer YES.. Is it a self insert of some kind? Maybe even an idealized version of yourself? HUMAN?!?

To those who answer NO.. Is it specific characters maybe from certain media or OC’s? Is there a certain reason to why you aren’t part of it?

If anyone cares for my answer : No, there is actually nothing I have with ME in it. Any if not all attempts at being myself takes a turn and I swap myself out with an OC somehow?!? My silly little brain world is if you took the earth and added two more countries to it. Then daydream wise every person is just me projecting.. whoops..

Added daydreams to the questions cuz because even besides a full fleshed out story I know them single short and sweet scenarios GO CRAZY

Okay I’m just gonna say this as a writer and a someone going through something difficult rn.

My main goal as a writer is to create characters iconic enough, comforting enough, relatable and compelling enough for people to use them as an escape.

If I publish a story I want the maladaptive daydreamers to allow those characters to comfort them, to fill in their gaps of loneliness from a partner or to help them heal from a partner. I want my readers to imagine themselves as friends, as anyone to my characters.

I want my stories to have people want to be with these characters, to have them save them, to help them. I know from daydreaming my whole life that these characters mean the world to those who use it as an escape.

I want fanfics, self inserts, fucking full fledged AUs about my stories. I want the internet to look at my work and use it as a comfort to the teens that are online. I know that any book, movie or show iconic enough or compelling enough will be seen as an inspiration to others. I want that.

I want the happiness that comes from people saying they’re inspired by my works, that they created something to relate to the characters.

I would love to have my own creation be seen as iconic enough for people to remember and appreciate. I would love to create something amazing enough for a fandom.

Does anyone else like, make different versions of your para? Like they're ultimately the same person, but with slight variations.

I tell myself

That I’m going to do all of these amazing things

But I never do them.

Instead,

I lay in my bed and stare at the ceiling;

I listen to my favourite song

And pretend that I wrote it;

I look out the car window

And pretend that I’m riding in a limousine;

I talk to myself

And lip-sync in the mirror;

I read

And watch movies

And pretend that I’m the main character.

I imagine all of the things

That I will never be

Because living in a daydream

Is easier than living in reality.

Do you ever like have a really good daydream and then you start physically acting out what the characters are doing and your like kicking around on your bed all weird and then your parents open the door and look at you all weird as you scramble to pretend nothing happened like characters in a cartoon… or are you normal?

*Goes on a lil MaDD rant so cutlery like*

The characters I've created are more than just characters. At least in connection with daydreaming.. I use them to keep my emotions in control and myself stable. I would not be able to live my life like a regular person if I did not completely filter out the world at that time. The scenarios I create help me understand how I should express my feelings. Oh and it doesn't just stop there THIS DOES GET A BIT VENT-ISH SO WARNING NOWW

They call me the.. SELF AWARE KING

Now that I'm more self aware of this stuff, I'm lost in a cycle of trying to stop using it and then having to rely on it to just survive. I'm not sure why I'm like this.. Looking back it feels like I've always been like this, but I've been removing myself (??) over the last few years. That makes sense since I don't really feel or look the way I would like to, but I also don't try to idealize myself in those ways because I already relate too closely with the heavily projected onto characters. Adding onto that, I don't even consider myself to be real when in daydreams half the time. (￣︿￣)

I have REALLY tried other coping mechanisms..

There are a few things I've tried in this rage of "This is getting bad and needs to stop RIGHT NOW" and they haven't worked. Nothing actually works. I'm not saying it doesn't work for everyone, but just doesn't work for me personally. Always starting with some sort of meditation, literally can't do that for the life of me and end up either daydreaming my way out or sending myself into a state of panic for some reason..? Redirecting my focus, starting with something as simple as a walk, makes you think it can't get any worse.. but ofc it does. Aside from that I almost always get close to resorting to even worse coping mechanisms, and obviously no one wants that. I just can't win here.. (・_・;)

Obviously it's not in the DSM sooooo

There must be a reason for my excessive need to daydreaming. Why else would I be this way????? I don't currently have a diagnosis and probably never will, but over the years I've been looking into the possibilities and things I'm slowly beginning to connect the dots on stuff lowkey.. It's not looking good lads. (O.O)

"Stop daydreaming it's a bad coping mechanism!!" MY HUMBLE AND HONEST REACTION TO THAT:

. I just need better ways to cope with life.. I'll have it down in like 4 years TRUST .

I feel like MaDD is like an addiction, it makes me feel good, is messing up my life, in many ways, and I can't stop, I tried so hard and I couldn't.

A poem I guess

In my head, 

An endless whirlwind,

Spinning effortlessly for hours on end.

It may be minutes,

It may be days. 

All I know is this plague,

Loves me,

And I it,

No matter how much,

It hurts to hold on to it.

Time and time again,

I let it absorb me,

In its endless embrace,

As it deforms me.

More thoughts bubbling to the top,

Like a spring of unforgiving,

Love.
