Does anyone else constantly daydream?

[antivita]

I feel like daydreaming is the only thing getting me through life right now. I definitely plan to CTB but I have to a wait a couple years to get the circumstances just right, so I spend most of my day fantasizing about what it would be like to be prettier, smarter, richer, etc... It's irrational, but I secretly wish that when I die I'll get a do-over and restart in one of my daydreams. Hopefully when the time comes this will help me get over the survival instinct.

Yes, I'm constantly thinking of the what ifs but then again I constantly think about what if I wasn't born. Then none of my daydreaming would torture me with false hope and I would lack all desires in nonexistence, which is the only thing that helps me not chase trivial dreams because none of it would matter if I didn't exist. But here I am waiting conflicted between the life I dream about and the life I live with death lingering by. 'There's a difference between existing and living.'

 

[Gray Wounds]

Before I daydream too. About what I'll do after death, about how I'll attain it, about humans and their vile behaviours, about the things that happened and the things that should've. But now, I find it hard to fully daydream without the threat of me disappearing into a catatonic state.

Yeah, reality is awful so I spend most of the time living in my head.

Yep, I'm a constant daydreamer for an impossible reality

I use to be better (mental health wise). And I would day dream about being someone special or you know just someone really interesting.... pathetic I know.
Now that I am what? Suicidal.... or whatever this is... I find that my day dreams are just about how I would kill myself in the most brutal of fashions or I just dream about some random person killing me. Mostly the latter. It would be nice if someone would just do what they want and I could just die and then no one has to be embarrassed of me.

Yeah I've spent hours thinking of the nitty gritty details of my imaginary friends and the person I'm pretending to be. When I'm lonely and sad I pretend that they're there for me. When I'm drinking by myself and listening to music I imagine we're chilling and talking about life. I hold onto the hope that when I die that dream will be a reality for me, like some fucked up thought in my head has actually deluded me into thinking that I'll be resurrected into the person I want to be so bad. Thats just how I cope with life I guess.

I also daydream my life away. Thinking of what-ifs, ways I could have and could improve my life.

Damn that made me feel bad. Sometimes.... when I am really bad off I imagine my "friends" feeling bad that I died. Or even worse I imagine killing myself in just really messy way and making them find it. I think I just want to find some place where I am good and people care ...

I find that I really have to dumb myself down so to speak inorder to get through the day and make things more tolerable otherwise I'm crying most of the time as I really have no interest in anything.

@antivita - A couple of years is a long time to 'get the circumstances just right'. Do you know what those 'circumstaces' would be? Just curious.

I want to have enough money set up for my family and I would prefer not to CTB while my grandma is still alive, she's been through enough. I also don't think that's an incredibly long time to wait, it gives me more time to plan/research and get my affairs in order.

I'm guilty of daydreaming, I also stare at myself in the mirror in hopes I disappear.
