Does this make sense to any of you too?
One of my paras died 3 years ago and even if I tried to change the scenario in my head and bring him “back to life” I was not able to do it.
I lived that traumatizing experience as if it was real and it took a really long time to recover (I still miss my para a lot and remember his birthday and death anniversary every year).

I’ve probably already said this but I’m so thankful for this MaDD community. Most of my life I’ve been thinking I was the only person in the world spending hours in daydreams everyday, it feels so good to feel understood.

Sharing a paracosm? Am I the only one?
Tell me if you also experienced something like this: as I was 12 years old me and my best friend were huge fans of a band and we both really liked the singer, so we both used to daydream a lot about him and what it would be like to be their friends... okay, this is quite common I guess, however
we knew about eachother daydreams so we decided to merge them and live the same daydream.
We talked about the paras as they were real and we agreed the plot together like “today this para will be with me, next week it will come on holidays with you” and when we talked we explained the other what happened in our part of the paracosm so we could link all the pieces.
It was super cool and at that point I had no idea of what MaDD was.
Everything ended in a couple months as we were busy with school and activities and out interest in the band vanished. But now that I think about it I realised maybe we were both maladaptive daydreamers that shared a paracosm for a while, isn’t that crazy?
In the following years we never talked about it and I never told her about maladaptive daydreaming...
do you think I should?

Please remember
that even if it’s hard, even if when we’re tired, even if we can’t see a way out right now, things will get better. Please trust me, they will.

There must be a way...
...to use MaDD to get better in life... to daydream a better version of yourself until you become that version...

Is your parame an original character or is he/she inspired to an existing person/celebrity/character?
For me, my parame is inspired by a celebrity. It actually started being the exact copy of that person but with time she evolved in my mind to someone who is like 98% original lol I just kept the name basically
