How to stop maladaptive daydreaming?
Mindfulness and Tracking. These are the two methods researchers have found to be particularly helpful to MDers.
Here is a study showing the initial treatment experiment: 2023-RCT-MD.pdf (dropbox.com)
And here is a place where you can sign up for the next round: The Official© Online Maladaptive Daydreaming Treatment Program (daydreaming-treatment.com)

Is it possible for me to control the daydreaming? Or to become better do I have to give it up entirely?
MD can be controlled. Researchers recommend Mindfulness and tracking (jotting down when/howlong/trigger etc, bujo-style). Total elimination is not recommended.

I've never been jealous with mdding...the worst emotion I've had was feeling pathetic for daydreaming extensively instead of living. But this jealousy thing is worse.

Hey:) What do maladaptive dreamers actually daydream about? I always think of fictional characters
Qualitative analysis identifying daydreaming content: main categories:
Celebrity/hero (being one, or in a relationship with one): 36.5%
Romantic/sexual relationships: 34.1%
Idealized version of self (maincharacter is the daydreamerbut with characteristics theyenvy): 34.1%
Imaginary family/friend (daydreamer’s self is in these interacting with imaginary people): 17.6%
Fictional characters taken fromanother source (i.e. TVshow/book/movie/videogame): 16.5%
Imaginary world (daydreamer’sself is not in these andcharacters are original to thedaydreamer): 15.3%
Popularity and receiving extraattention (sometimes due toillness/vulnerability): 14.1%
Death, violence: 11.8%
Sci-Fi/Futuristic or not inpresent time period: 10.6%
Negative feelings (revenge,vulnerability): 9.4%
Life course changes (fixing pastor imaging the future): 7.1%
Real life scenarios: 7.1%

I was reading about maladaptive daydreaming and I want to asses the kinds of scenarios in which I imagine myself partaking. They generally tend to be those where I'm the centre of attention, either I'm winning an award or being interviewed or giving a speech or giving an opinion about current events, or I am meeting somebody I adore but even then I'm the one doing most of the talking. I suppose, this need to be the most talked about or the best or better than others stems from the same sense of insecurity and not having found a solid sense of self, that enables feelings of envy and comparison. So the symptom is daydreaming but the causes are feeling s of insecurity, of inferiority, of self-doubt and self-defeat. They must be addressed to correct any behaviours one doesn't like.

act ii COWBOY CARTER 3.29
"It's interesting, because a lot of people don’t know that Beyoncé is my last name. It’s my maiden name. My name was Celestine Beyoncé, which at that time was not a cool thing, to have that weird name. I wanted my name to be 'Linda Smith,' because those were the cool names.
I think me and my brother Skip were the only two that had B-E-Y-O-N-C-E. It’s interesting — and it shows you the times — because we asked my mother when I was grown. I was like, ‘Why is my brother’s name spelled B-E-Y-I-N-C-E? You know, it’s all these different spellings’, and my mom’s reply to me was like, ‘That’s what they put on your birth certificate’ so I said, ‘Well, why didn’t you argue and make them correct it?’ and she said ‘I did one time. The first time, and I was told be happy that you’re getting a birth certificate because, at one time, Black people didn’t get birth certificates."
