Is it normal to live a second life in you're head?

I'm so bored with my life that one day, I created an alter ego who was so much better than me. I actually started to create things for this person and I actually try to act like them more. I'm actually trying to be this person and I'm starting to believe that I am them.

    Yes, I've been doing this for years. It's a shame that we can't live in those realities.

    I do this all the time, it helps me with my confidence issues and I enjoy it. So I'd say yes, it's perfectly normal and all the better if it's helping you work through confidece issues and improve yourself in your own eyes. :3

  • It's unintentionally setting goals to make yourself a better person. It's healthy to a certain degree :)

    Sadly, with the severely growing trend of people wanting to be something they're not, this has become a very normal psychological case in many people.
