- I dont know If Im weird, or theres something wrong with me
I believe you're just more intune with the flow of time, and possibly your heritage might be strong in your blood and give you a feeling of yearning from that time period.
This happens to me whenever I see anything related to Ireland and Scottland. Sometimes my heart actually twinges with a feeling of yearning because it's so out of reach. It's the same way with my mother and other people I know who are from Irish/Scottish descent.

I do it all the time and I am 27, though I usually am in my room listening to music when I do it. Usually I imagine my world come together. I use to space out in school, but for some reason my teachers knew I was thinking creatively, so they never really bothered much to tell my folks. lol... But usually fantasy did interrupt my child hood. I made up lies to get out of trouble, when in reality it was only an accident. I remember a time in elementary school we were playing in the dirt and my stick got stuck... When I pulled it out it ended up bringing dirt into my friends eye. She told the teacher and instead of just dealing with the punishment, I lied and said someone made me do it. But I was only a kid at the time, but I did have this wild imagination on how it came about. I even nearly believed it myself. In elementary school I lived my fantasy, which is not directly healthy but it did not hurt either. I just felt like an odd ball and I guess I made a world around be to cope with how I felt. EventuallY I grew up and now, I normally day dream in my room and it does not absorb my life.
Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

Khaotic Soul wrote:*hugs* I miss being what you are. I can't pull myself into stories the way I once could. I've become so self conscious I can't even do a goofy move even when an entire group is doing it. I know it's already been said but so long as you don't let it take over completely and it doesn't become dangerous for you/others it's actually a really good thing
This. Reading the entire first post, all I could think about was how much like that I was even a few years ago. I would always embarass myself by realizing I was talking to myself, out loud, in public, without meaning to. I had vivid, intense daydreams, to the point where if something sad happened I would cry and it would ruin my day. I couldn't get into a car or on the school bus without slipping into my fantasy world for the duration of the trip (something abotu being in a car is very calming to me). People who tapped on my shoulder when I had headphones on automatically became my most hated person in the world, even if it was a friend of mine.
I would listen to music and see scenes in my head, of things that the music reminded me of.
Somehow I've lost that. I let go of that part of myself during a really difficult time in my life, when reality was so surreal that I couldn't cope with daydreams or fantasy worlds anymore. I went through some serious stuff, was hospitalized, went through therapy, and emerged a glowing citizen of humanity, but somewhere in that process I lost my vivid imagination and my ability to slip away into a seperate world. Now I'm trying to write, to begin my career as a novelist, and every day I mourn the loss of that part of myself. Everything is so much harder. I miss the days where I could have conversations with my characters and imagine them walking beside me.
Don't ever let that part of yourself go. It's precious, beautiful, artistic, creative, and unique to you as a person. Your imagination is the best friend you'll ever have. There's nothing wrong with you, and yes you're probably weird but that's an amazing thing to be.
You're normal. I day dream all the time and I like to pretend that my favorite characters are real... Weird I know. But I think that everyone is unique, and if anyone tries to take that away from you then they aren't worth your time.

You call THAT weird? I'm 20 and I still do what I used to when I was a kid, which is basically other than just imagining it inside my head, actually roleplaying with an imaginary character, like I'm reversing to be part of some film and I'm trying to memorize my lines. If the character I am at the moment can do magic (like control the elements) I actually move the same way the character would and sometimes I look really silly. I even cry on those actings if I have too, which absurd 'cause out of those actings I can't cry at all even if I try to force mycelf to do it. It's like when I'm acting I actually become that character. But of course I know my family thinks I'm weird enough without knowing that (they say bad things to my face) so I just do it when I'm either alone at home or locked on my room.

You mean I'm NOT ALONE?
OMG, I have to get both the bus and the train twice a day so don't get me started about public transportation trips. I kinda dislike those though 'cause I can't actually start talking to myself or making gestures or crying/laughing out of the blue so I'm always super aware of everyone who's around me. Sometimes when I imagine I'm talking to someone I actually do lip-sync without knowing and I only realize it when someone else is staring right at me as if I'm crazy ^^"

Nah. Your not weard. You are normal in my eyes, because that's what I do. It's normal for kids in one level of progress to be in own dreamworld. That's just a period what peoples think that will go over sooner or later. So don't be worry. Some cases it can be added in learning problems, but in most of cases it's just a normal brogress.
It that you are seeing dreams is just a good memory. We all do, but mostly don't remember it for some reason.

As long as it's not interfering to much with your regular life to the point that it's becoming a problem for you, there is nothing wrong with being in your own little world. At least that's how I see it.
It might very well be that you are a very creative person. ^_^ I am way adult, but I still have my own little imaginary world and I use it for my own peace and creativity. I embrace it.
Without being judgemental about it maybe it's an idea to explore your little world and see what it can do for your in your daily life. It might be a way to protect yourself to deal with things. Or a way to create things. See it as interesting, not as weird.
Abilities we humans have might seem weird, but they are there for a reason. Be happy and proud of who you are!
