Is it normal to constantly daydream about being powerful?

5 Comments

I daydream constantly. Before I go to bed, in my free time, Whalen I zone out in class, etc. whenever I can daydream, I do. But the daydreams are always about me being something overpowered, like a demon, or a vampire or something, and being found out by people I know. Books or shows or even songs can spark my imagination and I will often have to stop doing what I’m doing because the daydream has become more entertaining. A lot of the time I daydream about telling my boyfriend that I’m [insert overpowered supernatural being/tv character here], then him coming to terms with that. It’s not like I have 8th grader syndrome, since I have never told anyone this and I know that nobody is anyone special. I know that constantly daydreaming is a problem but the thing I’m most concerned about is the subject. It is mostly either me sitting down to tell my bf about me, or it’s him finding out without me realising and tiptoeing around me until he gets the courage to talk to me about it. The whole premise of my daydreams are always power and people having difficulty with my hidden identity, neither of which are things I have in real life. Is it weird to constantly daydream about my favourite person to be around being absolutely terrified of me?

in real life it’s something I try to avoid most of all, ordinarily I could voice act these scenarios aloud to immerse myself but I wouldn’t dream of doing that around him. I constantly keep my facial expression as normal as possible, and I struggle with knowing how long to hold a smile. I can instantly drop any genuine facial expression like it was never there but when I’m in trouble in class for sighing and I’m in dire need of looking normal, I don’t, because I’m scared of making my boyfriend scared that I fake everything. I don’t know if I yell too much or repeat myself too much or don’t yell enough or are too double sided, quiet one minute and raising my voice the next, i don’t feel much genuine emotion outside of my daydreams and I’m scares of losing my boyfriend,,
is it normal?

That’s normal 5

That’s really weird but you can probably keep the façade up. 0
You need to talk to a psychiatrist and fix everything you said. 1

    That's normal, I used to do that a lot. Even if it wasn't normal, there's certainly nothing wrong with it. It's certainly nothing to be embarrassed about, you should feel comfortable telling your boyfriend if you want. You shouldn't hide yourself from him. And try not to stress too much over everything, you should talk to someone about it instead of holding it all in.

    You watch too many movies. You should also get some strong contact with reality or you might end up living in your own life. None of the options given for voting were accurate. You don't need a psychiatrist or so, but it's not normal. Not too abnormal either. You just need to work a bit on this. I suggest finding something to do that you really enjoy, like a sport or study a science or whatever, so you end up having a good balance there.

    You have affectional problems. You search for fulfilment in your fantasies. My tip is to go out there and find some adventures or do something different.

    I guess its fine just don't overdo it may be the reason behind this is that you have watched too damn much fantasy movies
