I feel like i live in this fantasy world and that i imagine things in my head sometimes i think im weird am i?

Question

I pretend im somone else sometimes like i jump out of my body and become someone else but i do this all in my head. I act out scenes and make up things. Mostly i imagine about famous people and being in there lives in some form but i pick out scenarios and play them out in my head. It's like if im lonely or feel alone i just imagine things so i dont feel alone. It makes me happy but i think there could be something wrong with me. I heard somewhere that a lot of fiction writers have this problem and thats where they get there ideas from. But im not sure if this is normal. My self esteem isnt low or anything, but i have always been an only child and my parents work a lot so maybe im just lonely. The thing is this has been going on for a long time probably since i was 10 and im 18 now. A long time ago i thought id grow out of it but i haven't. Is there something wrong with me?

Answer 1
