Maladaptive Daydreaming

So I was thinking back to when I was about 16? It was an intensely lonely time in my life which resulted in me maladaptive daydreaming constantly. Fictional characters talking to me, waking me up, helping me sleep, making food with me, getting dressed, showers, schoolwork. Every waking moment I spent interacting with characters and people I saw, felt and heard. I don’t remember exactly what stopped it, or what really started it.

But it was bad. Really bad. I’d get so defensive and defend it as normal behavior but seriously it wasn’t. 

My advice is make friends. If it’s hard, try online, talk in forums, play games online. Meet people. Get people to talk to but don’t get too dependent on them. More and more you’ll forget about your scripts and daily interactions with characters, distract yourself. Keep yourself safe and healthy though it can be hard,
