I hate daydreaming about getting a girlfriend.

[Crustaciouse]

I will dream occasionally about me having a gf, I had a daydream right now where I was celebrating Christmas with her and then we had sex at night. My mind won't let me forget about what I'm missing out on.

You can feel the molecules surrounding you dissipating in a gradual manner."Does your astral body get out of your physical body automatically?"Not quite, it is a process of gradual ascension. You can only reach complete ascension if you envision an abstract realm separate from reality.

Maladaptive daydreaming (MD) is extensive fantasy activity that replaces human interaction and/or interferes with academic, interpersonal, or vocational functioning. This qualitative inquiry explored the nature and experience of MD. Six patients in a trauma practice were identified as displaying MD. Four participants were diagnosed as suffering from a dissociative disorder; two were given the diagnosis of narcissistic personality disorder. Cross-sectional analysis of respondents' verbatim transcripts yielded nine themes clustered into three categories (Functions, Themes, and Dynamics) that best captured the fantasizing experience. Identified MD functions included Disengagement from Stress and Pain by Mood Enhancement and Wish Fulfillment Fantasies; and Companionship, Intimacy, and Soothing. Recurrent MD themes were Violence; Idealized Self; Power and Control; Captivity; Rescue and Escape; and Sexual Arousal. Motifs that were classified as describing MD dynamics were Onset and Kinesthetic elements. Although MD seemed to have been preceded by a normal childhood propensity for creative imagination, aversive circumstances were seen to have contributed to the development of MD. Theoretical explanations for the development and function of MD are discussed.

To determine the comorbidity profile of individuals meeting criteria for a proposed new disorder, daydreaming disorder (more commonly known as maladaptive daydreaming [MD]), the Structured Clinical Interview for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Dissociative Disorders were administered to 39 participants who met criteria for MD on a structured interview. We determined high rates of comorbidity: 74.4% met criteria for more than three additional disorders, and 41.1% met criteria for more than four. The most frequent comorbid disorder was attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (76.9%); 71.8% met criteria for an anxiety disorder, 66.7% for a depressive disorder, and 53.9% for an obsessive-compulsive or related disorder. Notably, 28.2% have attempted suicide. Individuals meeting criteria for MD have complex psychiatric problems spanning a range of DSM-5 disorders. This finding provides evidence that MD is different than normal daydreaming and that these individuals experience considerable distress and impairment.

Is there a connection between maladaptive daydreaming and autism?


The idea makes a certain amount of sense. Both conditions are linked to obsessive, repetitive thinking that’s highly elaborate and detailed.


Both conditions are also often accompanied by repetitive physical movements, often called self-stimulation or ‘stimming’ in relation to autism.

Maladaptive daydreaming is a relatively new concept in the psychology literature, having only been defined and brought to wider attention by Israeli psychologists Eli Somer and colleagues in 2002.


As such, there has been little examination into the link between maladaptive daydreaming and autism.

Recent Studies​

However, one study conducted by Somer and colleagues in 2020 examined this link by recruiting over 500 participants and asking them to complete both an Autism-Spectrum Quotient, a test to measure autistic traits and the Maladaptive Daydreaming Scale (MDS) to measure the extent of maladaptive daydreaming.


The results showed a clear link between levels of maladaptive daydreaming and autism traits. This suggested that the two could indeed be closely connected.


However, the picture becomes somewhat less clear when other variables are taken into account.

In the above study, the researchers also tested for levels of social isolation and difficulty with emotional regulation.


Both of these traits are common but not exclusive to people with autism.


It was found that levels of isolation and difficulty with regulating emotions were both significant mediators in the link between autism and maladaptive daydreaming.


In other words, autism causes people to feel isolated and to experience emotional regulation difficulties, which may cause higher levels of maladaptive daydreaming.

Maladaptive Daydreaming and Autism: Is There A Link? - Discussing Psychology

Research has uncovered a potential link between maladaptive daydreaming and autism. But the question is, why does this relationship exist?

...

This study explores the recently described phenomenon of Maladaptive Daydreaming (MD) and attempts to enhance the understanding of its features. It documents the experiences of 340 self-identified maladaptive daydreamers who spend excessive amounts of time engaged in mental fantasy worlds, in comparison to 107 controls. Our sample included a total of 447 individuals, aged 13–78, from 45 countries who responded to online announcements. Participants answered quantitative and qualitative questions about their daydreaming habits and completed seven questionnaires assessing mental health symptoms. Findings demonstrated that MD differs significantly from normative daydreaming in terms of quantity, content, experience, controllability, distress, and interference with life functioning. Results also demonstrated that Maladaptive Daydreamers endorsed significantly higher rates of attention deficit, obsessive compulsive and dissociation symptoms than controls. In sum, findings suggested that MD represents an under-acknowledged clinical phenomenon that causes distress, hinders life functioning and requires more scientific and clinical attention.

On New Year’s Eve our neighbors once set up a bonfire party in the field next to our house. I was
fascinated by how big the fire was. I had never seen anything like it, and it astounded my little mind. This
was also the first time I saw fireworks. My father gave me one of those sparklers to play with, which I
was enraptured by.
There was one very special place that my father would often take me to. It was at the top of a range
of beautiful rolling hills that I termed the “London Hills”, because I thought that London was on the
other side of them. We would go there to fly kites. I can remember these experiences vividly. The hills
were full of tall straw-like grass, and the weather was always windy – perfect for kite flying.
It was a time of utmost happiness and joy for me. My father taught me to fly a kite by myself. The
wind was so strong that I feared it would lift up my frail little body and carry me into the clouds. Once I
got the hang of it, it was exhilarating. We would fly our kites together and run with the wind. I will never
forget that place.
