I'll try to keep this short. I catch myself often daydreaming and plotting events that will most likely never happen but are related to real people i know. For example I have daydreamed about myself getting into fights, down from what I'd say and every move I'd make and how it would end. Another example is that I picture myself getting in a horrible car accident and having my old friends visit me in the hospital, and even plotting what street and who's car where the accident would take place I'm not suicidal and I dont wish for anything bad to happen to me. I also think it has to do with craving attention but I have an okay family life and some friends that care about me, i have nothing to complain or be self pitiful about. Overall it seems out of character and its been happening for the past year or so. Some people have told me that I just have an overractive imagination or that im just depressed, neither would surprise me. But I also know that fantasizing about serious things that most likely won't happen is not healthy..it even distracts my moods and can keep me up at night, like tonight. I know i might need some therapy, but what do you think this is? Oh and i'm 15.

  1. Being 15 is hard. You say two things that prompt a suggestion: you don't want anything bad to happen to you and you might be craving attention. Why not have it both ways? Write short stories based on these fantasies. Nathaniel Hawthorne became famous doing just that: turning his dreams into short stories.
