I maladaptive daydream ALOT and in recent weeks I have been having an urge to actually live out my maladaptive daydreams I have a genuine need for them to come true which I know they cant, so I came on here to see if that is my queue to try and quit maladaptive daydreaming because it has potentialy reached an unhealthy level.

P.s (I would also like to say that I am a teenager and that maladaptive daydreaming is normal for someone my age I just want to be sure that its not out of hand)

I talk go myself like ALL the time and everytime i talk to someone about it they relate and say they do to but i feel as if i talk to myself on like another level, i will sit and pretend i am having a conversation with a character from a show or even when i walk in the hallways at school i create fake senarios as my entertainment for my walk to my next class and in there senarios i pretend i am talking or hanging out with characters from a book or show, another thing i do is when i am with my family on vacation or somthing simple like dinner i will create a senario in my head and instead of being at these places with my family i am at these places with these fictional characters and i am having a good time and am happy idk if that is just a way for me to cope bcs i lowk dislike my family but i also feel as if i can only be my true self in my head if that makes sense but i think that just comes from living in a conservitive family who also judge every move you make (i am also a women so it feels 20 times worse) anywho if anyone can tell me if i am normal and that they relate please do so because recently i have been questioning if this is normal and healthy.

P.s.
Sorry if this doesnt make sense or i lowk misspelled anything
