#22: Today we talk about Maladaptive Daydreaming and how it has affected my life. Everyone daydreams, but Professor Eliezer Somer identified a much more acute version of daydreaming called Maladaptive Daydreaming. It's characterized by the following symptoms:

• Extremely vivid or elaborate daydreams, almost like stories
• Can be triggered by real life events
• Difficulty completing tasks
• Overwhelming desire to continue daydreaming
• Repetitive movements while daydreaming
• Facial expressions while daydreaming
• Whispering or talking to self while daydreaming
• Daydreaming for long periods of time

This week was an interesting one to research and plan. Hope you find value in this one.

Note: I'm not a doctor! Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I'm just a girl with a laptop and a mic, trying to make interesting things. Much love xx
