Is it normal to be almost constantly daydreaming.

Ever since i was young i have had an obsession with day dreaming and now that im in college i know that this is not a good thing to continue doing as much as i do it. I can hold normal and intellectual conversations and prevent myself from doing it when i want or need to so its not like people think that i have a mental problem or appear socially awkward.
I've become so "good" at it I can go from class to class without having any real recollection of getting there. Its gotten to the point that when i walk by people during the day that they sometimes think im ignoring them. What really bothers me about my habit is that it feels like im missing out on my real life.

    Sometimes I will drive for miles and not realize how I got so far as I did or remember actually driving that distance.

    Yes! I was literally about to post the exact same question when I came across this! Just the other day I missed my train stop because I was so engrossed in my thoughts. I spend so long in my head every day that I almost feel as though I'm missing out on reality.

    I'm probaby exaggerating a little here to get my point across - I don't think it impacts my life too much - but yeah. I spend all day thinking about what life would be like if...

    I think that you're just distracted easily. Nothing wrong in it. Just that your concentration is low. Try to be more active.
