#150- Maladaptive Daydreaming- What Is It, And How Can I Deal With It?

Today’s audio question comes in from a listener who has been working hard on their obsessions and has made a bunch of progress toward recovery, but is noticing that she’s experiencing Maladaptive Daydream. She wants to know if I can offer any suggestions on how to address Maladaptive Daydreaming, so I give a brief discussion of what it is, how it differs from the regular daydreaming we all know about, and what she (or you) can do to help with it. Here are some resources I mention in the episode: https://www.discussingpsychology.com/maladaptive-daydreaming/how-to-stop-maladaptive-daydreaming/https://www.sleepfoundation.org/mental-health/maladaptive-daydreaminghttps://www.treatmyocd.com/what-is-ocd/common-fears/maladaptive-daydreaming-ocd
