Forum: Immersive/Maladaptive Daydreaming Clubho... Group

This is where group members can introduce themselves and get to know other clubhouse members. I'll start this forum topic off.


I'm Izzy, and I am the founder of the IDD/MADD Clubhouse. I've daydreamed for pretty much all my life, but it didn't become maladaptive until around six years ago. I've luckily worked through my MADD in therapy, and I'm confident in saying my daydreams are no longer maladaptive, and now I simply immersive daydream to pass the time.

This is my first SpaceHey group, and to be frank, I kind of doubt that there are any more than ten other immersive daydreamers on here, but it would be nice to keep this group active enough to foster some connections and friendships. :-)

Hi I'm Mikey! IDK if I immersive and/or maladaptive daydream, but I often spend a lot of time in my own head thinking about hypothetical scenarios and/or conversations, as well as brainstorming worldbuilding and such for my characters. Even if that doesn't qualify as IDD/MDD, I figured it was close enough?

Especially since when I have conversations in my head, (especially if it's with my partner/favorite people and/or my eyes are closed,) they are EXTREMELY vivid and sometimes hard to distinguish from reality if the scenario(s) and conversation(s) I create for myself are realistic enough. If this sounds familiar, I would wager a guess that it's IDD, not MDD? As it doesn't negatively interfere with my life.

It might also be a tulpa thing, and/or a median system thing

Whatever it is, we've definitely got brainworms of some kind over here lmao /lh
