Never heard of Maladaptive Daydreaming until now. Glad it's not just me; I've had a hell of a time explaining this sensation over the years.

People who do this tend to “lose themselves” in extremely vivid and detailed daydreams. Research also shows this kind of daydreaming might be compulsive. That means it’s difficult — if not impossible — to control that you’re doing it.
