Maladaptive daydreaming disturbs everyday functioning, which includes academics, work, and other regular activities. Do you find yourself emersed in daydreams? Daydreaming can be harmless, creative, and fun, but excessive daydreaming can negatively interfere with your goals and daily tasks in your life.
