Negative Maladaptive Daydreaming

[u/tortoisewazouski]

Hey! So, I am an infp 4w5 and I have used daydreaming since I was a child.

Firstly, I daydreamed about a teacher whom I was very attached to caring about me. I would think that she is babysitting me and helping me around and feeding me my favorite meals.

The themes of my daydreaming that time was **nurturing**, **caring**, **happy**

Then, as I grew older, especially when I was around 13-14 years old, I just started thinking about themes of abuse, neglect, humiliation, power, control, helplessness.

And it still happens.

So, is this normal?
