I love this - maladaptive daydreaming deserves more recognition, it’s truly a curse
The problem is the social environment there is no question for example in a tribe is seen as a blessing, this simply defend human captivity, you think human beings should be productive animals? strange others are not, I just think it's ridiculous to think that dreaming is bad the simply a social factor there is no harm in dreaming .
@@davidsantos1630 I don’t understand your point
@@davidsantos1630 there is a huge harm in daydreaming this intesntly
For me, it’s not solely about productivity. It causes me distress because it’s no longer in my control & it’s addictive, it’s my only source of happiness but i wish to stop. It’s not just about productivity. Because I can’t stop daydreaming I find it difficult to have fulfilling relationships because I choose to spend time alone to daydream (although it’s not really a choice). Things like driving become really hard because I cannot control the dissociation. Even doing simple tasks like showering and eating are hard because I have to pull myself out of a daydreaming session in order to complete these tasks , so a lot of things in life become difficult to deal with. It’s not about productivity it’s about control, I no longer have control over the daydreams and it’s exhausting to fight with your brain to stay in the present moment.
Yes it does. I didn't realise for how many years I had this problem(coupled with OCD). It ruined some of my formative years when i should have been working for my career.
@@ruthabera1159 Whats solution!
I’m 27 and I’ve been maladaptive daydreaming (MD) since I was 13. Music is a big trigger for me. It started by imagining myself in the music videos of songs I was listening to. I still do this now, and lots of the time when I listen to music I think of ideal imaginary scenarios where I’m really charismatic, beautiful, and well liked.
I’m really going to try and build up a habit of meditating daily because it should help me to stay in the present. One of the problems with my MD is that I invent past or future scenarios. I really regret not trying harder in school, and in my daydreams I go back to the past and imagine myself as a high achieving student. I also have issues maintaining friendships, and in my head I go back to my school days and imagine that I know who to avoid in school and who to befriend, because in reality I’ve been done dirty by a lot of friends.
I also imagine myself in the future having an ideal life, and I also imagine an ideal life for my future kids.
I need to stop doing this because living in fantasies is harmful. When I was 22-24 I had an EXTREME crush on my colleague who was in a relationship. I never acted on my feelings but I was literally in love with him. I cried for a whole year after he left my work place. I think part of what created this strong attraction to him was that I fantasised about him too much.
I hope I can break free from this harmful thinking one day
How is it going?
@@dankemo3169 I’ve been backsliding a bit, I need to be more disciplined with controlling my thoughts. And I want to start doing meditations about staying in the present
Damn you literally describe what I went through
OMG the same with me, I thought I was the only one with this issue.
Damn this is almost exactly like me. Thank you for sharing; we will get control of it one day!
Maldaptative daydreaming is a very serious problem......You know that it's wrong but you can't stop it😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
For years I was isolating myself to daydream… it was compulsive and I was not even realizing it that’s crazy. My life in my imagination was so much better. But once I learned about maladaptive daydreaming it hit me hard! Since then I’m able to recognize it when it happens and what I do is that I name out loud all the objects around me so it keeps me back to reality. It works well and I almost don’t do it at all 😊 also I completely stopped listening to music that triggers me…
Start meditating it will help for sure.
Do it for an hour regularly.
(Don't meditate in your room because your mind has been programmed to daydream in that room.)
And just do it regularly for 2-3 months and you will start seeing the results.
(This is coming from a guy who had MD but he cured it and transformed himself in the end)
The main problem of MD is that it is so pleasant and addictive. When I struggled from other mental disorders, I was so motivated to overcome it because it felt so uncomfortable and difficult. But MD is something difficult to stop doing, because you feel so good when doing it
omfg, exactly.
trueeeee
I started daydreaming when i was about 6, i would imagine that i was on a show, or a singer. now i’m 19, it took a bunch of time, it has made my discipline harder to achieve, whenever i’m alone, or stress i daydream, i’m always daydreaming and is my addiction, i’ve tried to stop but i came back. i can be hours and hours daydreaming, i don’t even know what my life goal is, i can’t even go to work because i rather daydreaming that actually living in the real world, or i just get angry at the fact of hours without daydreaming. it sucks, i just want to stop doing that because is not good for me, or for my friends. and is no good, i have to live life and achieve my dreams and have a normal life.
geez, i dumped a lot, but i hope i can get better, thank you for this video.
Same. Best of luck
I quit nicotine, weed, PMO. Now i have to quit daydreaming and social media. Keep at it guys. We'll get there eventually.
hey, can i ask! why quit social media?
i wish u all the best on your journey!!
Social media isn’t really good and can be just as addictive.
@@NightingaleFlorine because social media is scandalous. Content is not supposed to be boring. Social media distracts us from real life because life isn't as exciting.
Parole Money Order? Putting Makeup On? I cant figure that one out lol
Very relevant video for me. Almost brings tears to my eyes. Only cried 3 times in the last 12 years. To be honest, this was more helpful than my therapist.
did u overcome the issue ??
I had some childhood trauma and decades of stress but now my life is peaceful and happy but I'm still lost in a daydream world even around other people. The daydreaming itself is my only real source of stress.
I started daydreaming when I was like 11(but I daydreamed when I was younger too but it wasn't an "habit") ...I often daydream about living in a "cartoon world"/ singing / dancing or being famous ...then It became an obsession...I started (and I do it very often now) daydreaming for hours (always listening to music )and procrastinating on things .
I'm very grateful that this video popped on my feed since with my maladaptive daydreaming,I don't have a life anymore so,thank you!:)
I caan relate so much mine started at 12 and it's almost the same
Just getting what I like and getting rid of what I don't.. now that I'm about to turn 20, it's about everything
Hope you're doing better now, u still have a lot of time ahead of you to grow and imrove
I have maladaptive daydreaming with Hollywood and famous personalities.
I've wasted my whole life.
i did my own reseach i did find out i have Maladaptive Daydreaming, its sure feel good when you excape, but in reality it waste your time and your life feels its left behind
I had to stop the video to say thank you for talking about this on youtube. I am having a period where my MD is getting really bad and looking for "i cant stop daydreaming about a celebrity crush" on reddit was that i found about this disorder. Your videos are very clear to understand, and i think you tips will help me a lot. Thank you!
I want to be able to stop MD completely. I hope that I can. I can spend hours a day doing this, and I can even do it simultaneously whilst doing tasks and studying, but as a result, the things I want to do have poor results and it is very inefficient. It is the ultimate escape. I do not want to live in the reality that I do, and the MD things I think of sometimes are flawed and not even what I consider to be perfect and what I essentially want, but that is a huge point. I cannot even imagine a reality I fully want to live in, so it has to be built from the extremely flawed one and one that has been causing me mental pain and conflicts in my mind.
However, I want to be able to stop. I am not even sure what I will be thinking of instead, but I will do it. It has grown into a seemingly untamable monster that came about when I was a young child but was only small but still strong back then, but I believe it can be stopped. It would help to know the neuroscience and mechanics behind my brain specifically. I do understand myself almost thoroughly I believe (because I think about my life and thoughts as much as I MD about fantasy things).
I feel like I can be only a prisoner of my own mind, or my reality. But I want neither.
I will try to stop.
Thanks for taking the time to cover this topic. I hadn't realised that it was called maladaptive daydreaming, but it's something I've struggled with since childhood, along with derealization. It's good to know I'm on the right track by trying to spend less time in my head, and shift my focus. The whole idea of acceptance confused me, because I felt like shifting my focus was "fighting it", which is what people tell you to avoid doing. Since I started focusing on my surroundings more, my derealization and anxiety have lessened. Your video helped to make me see that Im on my way to solving part of the puzzle. Thank you.
Plz created a book a get of this new age robots.
@@davidsantos1630 eh?
io stessa cosa ultimamente però scoprendo di sta cosa ho provato a cercare di non immaginare più e mi è sparito grazie a un attacco di panico il problema della derealizzazione
Did u get over from this?? Please answer me because i'am too much addicted to daydreaming
Amazing! I can relate to what you're saying here, with fighting it. Right before reading your comment, I was reminded of something called outwards consciousness meditation, which is what you describe you did to lessen the anxiety. I happy I saw this video today, and that I read your comment. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you so much for making a video on this rare condition
Please keep making videos. You're a life saver. Your videos have taught me so much, you make it so easy to figure out even with my limited attention span. Thank you Rumzi, thank you from the deepest of my heart for putting in so much work into this video. Really looking forward to the mindfulness video you're working on!
Thank you very much for creating this video. You don't know how much You helped through just this video only. Look forward to more of your videos.
Amazing video, its actually like a vacuum, sucks u in it and takes a lot of mindfulness to come out of it!!
Thank you for being so candid and sharing your process. I have just understood what it is that I struggle with, even after trauma therapy and years of meditation. You explained it so elegantly and in a way that's easy to accept. You just gave me motivation to go back to my meditation practice, and not the guided kind. Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
thank you for everything 🖤
I can’t really tell when did I start daydreaming, I was too young to remeber I used to believe everyone was like that but doesn’t admit it ,it was so good and doesn’t effect me but starting from the middle school I was accepted into an Elite school and it was pretty stressful, I used to escape and daydream, Now I’m in the 12th grade and iver two years I started searching about self-improvement methods and stuff like these because I thought I was just procrastinating until one day I confessed and told myself I can’t do anything bc of daydreaming, now I know what’s wrong, I didn’t know it could be a symptom of a mental illness I thought I was just lazy and avoiding work . It’s uncontrolable now I daydream without realizing and sometimes when I realize I’m doing it again I just cry then I imagine some characters comforting me which is literally insane it feels like there’s no escape from this
This is exactly what im going through. My exams are so soon and im so tierd of feeling like im just so stupid cause i cant focus, you arnt alone at all and i pray we can get through this and insted, turn it into something beautiful like a story (yep now i gotta meditate so i dont daydream about writing stories💀)
@@middsummer I hope we get thru this woth good grades, these tests will literally determine my future (stupid Arab school system🥲)
BRO LEGIT GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING! I couldnt even go to take my وزاري test cause i woke up late last year 💀 (living the nightmares every students has lol) I ended up just repeating the year cause I wouldnt have gotten good grades and now here i am. Though i do belive that there is always something so much better than we could imagine in our future! Good luck! اتمنالك حظ جميل ✨
@@middsummer god sorry for what happened I hope everything with you will settle down, I already failed two subjects in my midterm and I’m feeling I’m going to fail in my finals too😀 the problem is that my family doesn’t even allow me to take دور ثاني they think I’m a genius like my sister 🙂
Mate the fact that you are able to even get into an elite school (متميزين؟) just prove that you are smart as hell! Maybe in a very diffrent ways than your sibling, i mean being able to imagine things vividly is so cool✨ im also in a "distingushed" school and lemme tell you i thought i was the dumbest human alive when i first moved here because everyone seemed to have it figure out, but after two years in one grade, lemme tell you no one has it figure out. Like at all. Everyone is so stressed, last year a friend of mine who ended up with 100% in chem didnt finish the last 2 chapter until the day befor the exam, and she still aced it! Insted of looking at it like you might not be as good, Maybe you can be so much better in ways and professional you cant even imagine now! Haha ill make sure to check up on you after the exams! Wish you all the best🕺✨
Thank so much for making this video I know I’m a year late but this has really helped me because I know that I have so much potential in my life but male adaptive daydreaming was always holding me back, but now that I know what’s causing it I know how to not let it control me so thank you so much and god bless you
Thank you Rumzi with your insights. :)
Thank you so much for your videos. You are giving me hope.
This gave me so much clarity. I sat down and found the core issues that my day dreaming was coping with. Next step is to resolve the issues and meet these needs irl. Thank you
Thank you for this video, very helpful !
Thank you so much for this. I am trying to learn more about maladaptive daydreaming since I noticed that it's getting worse for me lately. Your video literally feels like a friend who's talking or teaching me.
Awesome video, God bless you
It is extremely helpful, thank you.
Thank you brother. God bless you
This channel is a blessing
Have your problem cured ?
One thing that helped me quit quite fast is when i would listen to song i would focus on the lyrics and whenever i would start daydreaming i would snap out of it and because the songs are timed you can tell how much time you spent and if you started daydreaming in this specific song and slowly i would not daydream for 2 then 3 and then 5 then 7 songs and eventually it will stop. Yes this is hard because songs are a big trigger for most mds but i highly recommend this.
Edit : ( if you have a playlist you can also test how many songs went by that you daydreamed and you realize sooner when you started and when it ended )
Thank God I am not alone
This video is very helpful, thank you 👍
Thank you. God bless you. This is so so helpful.
When I saw video it was same thing which I have been facing for almost 25 years . Still I am facing that addiction. This kind of video help me to realize that I should stop daydreaming.
thank you so much very helpful, i hope you good
Thank you so very much. It helped me alot.
thank you soo much for this
I hope that I'll get out of this Situation InshaAllah
respect❤️
I've dealt with this since I was a teenager. I am 49 now. Thank you for this video.
How is it now
How is it now
I have to really work at it. I tend to want to do it when I'm tired. I would say it's much better and less than it used to be.
@@purpose8141 has it interfered with your goals?, relationships?, family? I mean are there any regrets?
Thank you❤
I’m 15 and I think I might have maladaptive daydreaming since I was about 12. It started when I had for some time anime phase and I watched it a lot. I’m more of introvert and when I was younger I used to read a lot of fantasy books. I liked to imagine different things but then it was a normal daydream. It became more less maladaptive when I was about 13 yo. I didn’t affect my studying or anything but it was triggered by long walks, going by bus or learning to music. I actually liked it, because it helped me to escape reality from time to time and I really enjoyed it. A problem started when last year it became my routine and every time I walk somewhere, doesn’t matter whether with my class or not, I daydream. I feel that I make stupid faces and it happened a few times that I caught myself giggling to myself. It became exhausting at some point. It’s hard to stop it since it feels natural. I became separated from other people, because on one hand I love daydreaming and being by my self, but also sometimes I feel lonely and mad at myself and lack of social integrations. Also the problem is for me became that it is harder to keep an eye contact, which is kind an annoying. I hope I’ll be able to stop it one day
sir I am very thankfully to you for this information my daydreaming has no control by me it controls
thank you sm
Please stop using background music. It diverts my attention and I can't concentrate.
Thank you for sharing!
The problem is the social environment there is no question for example in a tribe is seen as a blessing!
I think started day dreaming at 10 yrs of age. I used to get beaten and my parents were overcontrolling.

you know it's bad when you catch yourself zoning out even during watching this video

I started to daydream when I was seven because I was alone at recess
thankyou
Pray to GOD aswell
while im glad i found your video, I am more concerned that my youtube algorithm diagnosed me correctly
I even watched this video with having dreamingbwhile i write it i also dreamt i think im in serious issue with my dreaming
The same Background music for 30 minutes straight is driving me insane 😭😭
Do you have some mindfulness meditation recommendations? Video or audio we can follow along with?
The first one I ever used was by a CZcams channel called The Honest Guys, it was a 10 minute mindfulness meditation, I can recommend that one. Or look for one that is for "body scanning" meditation.
The worst reason to have MD is because of a *BIG* goal you want to reach. And I mean *BIG.* It’s so far but and when you keep thinking of your ideas of what you want to do, you unintentionally suck yourself into these addicting universes of you and others that you’ve met, or have seen in some form of fantasy. Or at least for me, that’s how I got here. But I’m working on it ✌️
I've read maybe hundreds of comments on MD over the course of months, and almost half of them say it started around the age of 11-12, same goes for me too. Any ideas why this could be the case?
what if i don’t have therapy as an outlet can journaling the root cause or even just thinking about them and acknowledge them help?
I tried journaling, didn’t help much
I think the invention they created is amazing, what kind of people will have future robots and that now dreaming is bad because you waste time ,which is bad and you don't have shared dreams, now having imagination is bad no you weren't formatted to believe that when only you dapatate to captivity before you dream of freedom, what you are doing is a great danger for humanity.you are destroying what makes us human to adapt to an unnatural social system, human being is not meant to be a productive thing but happy trying to change the world for the better not to adapt to it.
Hey David. Although I suffer from MD, I think I understand what you are getting at. Stopping a natural human creative behavior only for the sake of producing is indeed a terrible idea, but the case we have here its different.
Nobody wants to become a drone. the problem with MD is the daydreaming gets so intense and addictive that it impairs other areas of our lives. It is extremely difficult to focus on command, in my opinion having our own mind prevent us from focusing on something we set out to do is a huge detriment. It is fact, that excessive daydreaming is not normal. Those who have it, have it for a reason, its a sign that things are not going well for our mental health.
For example: Most days when I come home from work I would listen to music, pace around my room and kick a ball, I would look at the clock and notice an hour has gone by and I have yet to work on my hobby or talk to my friends. The problem is, it's hard to stop and I would do it for another hour.
It's gotten better, but as you can see those are sings of someone who isn't right in the head at the moment.
The guy on the video is providing instruction on how to deal with this problem, he is not helping some new world order that is out there to enslave our thoughts or slay any human faculties.
@@andr3s306 things are not going well. It's not with the individual but with the environment society, just look at the dreamer, he simply knows what reality is.
Sir i personally feel that this is normal since we all tend to make up or own world inside our mind to relax but it's excesss is what is devastating I am 19 I figured out my prblm n i have almost recovered it it's just how brain needs to be trained I have half overcome it n in my coming days i will win over it
do you have a routine to go outside regularly( like tution ,school ,office, gym ,friends) OR you always stay at home?
have you win it over ?

@@jayshreedwivedi4473 yrr dekho everyone has an imaginary world but the thing is we need to control so tht it doesn't affect our reality good people new ambitions do help going out interacting with people for long time n animals n nature help
@@jayshreedwivedi4473 I'm genuinely sorry for late reply idk how i skipped it
Sometimes, a dream of lies feels way more welcoming than a reality made of thorns.
MD is an elaborate subconscious coping strategy.
Meditation is key really.
I hv studied neuroscience as my dd made me suffer alot, I felt horrible for not being able to control my brain & now as per my knowledge I think Maladaptive daydreaming and fpp both are caused by dysfunction in post central gyrus and Parietal lobe and the super function of occipital lobe.
what does that mean?

My cause of daydreaming is ramayan thats why i hate ram because daydreaming due to him destroy me
Can you explain more?? Why so?? Daydreaming because of ramayana
Does md affect your logical understanding???
It could mess with your logic a little if we’re talking about priorities.
you simply defend human captivity you think human beings should be productive animals, strange others are not, I just think it's ridiculous to think that dreaming is bad the problem is a pyramidal society that you think it's normal for a being to be productive, that's simply a narrative of social control, everything you say is simply a social factor there is no harm in dreaming in inventing this concept you are simply destroying the concept of dream it is sad to see human captivity at work.
Heinnnn? Maladaptive daydreaming is a trouble
Maladaptive daydreaming isn't just bad for productivity, I can forget to take care of myself because of it. Daydreaming isn't always bad simply because one acknowledges that some is maladaptive- which means harmful adaptation.
I think you're someone who's never actually have experienced the severity of this. It makes you depressed. To live in a world and set up expectations for yourself, and then not be able to live up to it is terrible. It takes away your focus completely, you can do anything. You neglect your friends, your family, your pets and most importantly yourself. It's not bad to have an imagination, it's never the point of this to stop imagining as a whole, it's to stop the unhealthy habits of using it as an escape.
