I enjoy active daydreaming!

General Question/Discussion

(On mobile so I apologize for formatting problems)

I've seen a few people talk about the type of daydreaming that includes facial exression, mouthing the words and often body movements and how bothered they are by it.

I do believe this is often an ADHD thing due to the internal voice thing a lot of us have.

But I kind of enjoy it? I'm playing a part in a play or movie or whatever made for me!

It's embarrassing when I'm caught but I'm not hurting anything so I'm unsure why it's looked down on!

I have innerworlds so large that I can't awlays contain them and I'm sad I have to sometimes shrink them because other people think it should be smaller.

Is it harmful I like indulging whenever I'm on my own?
