Maladaptive daydreaming is a lifesaver

[ZfkieL]

I can just play scenarios in my head to have a even little bit pleasure and forget about how fucked up the life is when Im doing nothing or bored. Its like tricking the brain into life is actually worth living lol. Imagine just existing and being in constant pain without this ability.

Larping and maladaptive day dreaming is very dangerous

It's a form of escapism. When you LARP as a chad or a morph of yourself, your brain releases dopamine. You get the reward of being a slayer, getting girls eyc without doing the hard work, being born genetic elite, taking the risk etc Your brain doesn't care if it's fake. It still releases...

i mean obviously everyone can improve some aspects of their life but i feel like most people daydream about stuff they CANT change
