I'm not sure if this is the right forum; I apologize if it isn't.
Has anyone else heard of Maladaptive Daydreaming? I stumbled upon something on the web that led me to the brief article on Wikipedia.
I was surprised when I discovered there was a name for this... I guess it's a coping mechanism, maybe? I'm not sure how to describe it.

Anyway, it sounds like I have/do it. I have an entire imagined, alternate life going on inside my head. I know it's not real. But I've had this storyline going for as long as I can remember. I suppose I'm retreating into a fantasy life in order to deal with my problems...

Does anybody else do this?
