Since I was like 4 or 5, I've daydreamed a lot. When daydreaming alone I dance around my room, often with music if noone's around, flapping something like a pen in my hand. May sound weird but I've been doing it my whole life. The dreams either involve an idealised image of me, stuff I've seen in books/films, or both. When I read books/watch films, I can't stop daydreaming about what my idealised image would do in that situation that the characters are in. I dream I'm with them and don't resume reading/watching until I get tired or bored of doing that particular scenario. Do I have maladaptive daydreaming?
