Daydream
Ex. 1:
"This meeting sucks, and it's not even important. Who organized this? Well... I think I can at least get some daydreaming time in."
Ex. 2:
"I'm lying in bed and the pain is returning. Welp, at least I have my daydreams I can always escape to."

Get the DAYDREAMERmug. A term used to describe some or all of the following symptoms:
- Excessive daydreaming, to the point where one cannot, or has difficulties with, functioning properly in real life
- Purposeful removal of oneself from situations that interrupt, prevent or otherwise disrupt daydreaming
- Creation of various storylines within daydreams, usually filling the holes in one’s own life (arousal, feeling of purpose, heroism, a social life, etc.)
- Tiredness (often caused by preventing oneself from sleeping so there is more time to daydream)
- Inability, or hindered ability, to maintain focus on real life scenarios in favor of daydreaming
Maladaptive Daydreaming is often associated with other, official terms, such as depression, ADHD, PTSD, schizophrenia and more.
There is no prescription to take in order to solve maladaptive daydreaming. The best solution is to seek professional therapy. Therapy isn’t as scary as it sounds; they ask what the problem is, and then work with you to develop a solution. They will never judge you, and have several degrees on how to deal with these kinds of situations. If therapy is not an option, alternative solutions would be to create a vent for your ideas and desires to flow into (keeping a journal, sharing ideas with friends, achieving real life goals, etc.).
If you searched this because you think you have maladaptive daydreaming, please don’t ignore it. It can ruin your life.

Get the Moonage daydreammug. The wet daydream occurs during the day when you are thinking about laying the bone to some hottie and you get a rock hard boner, and after it (the boner) goes down, you have a few drops of splooge in your underbriefs. Some guys may have a full load in their pants, depending on how hot of a situation they were daydreaming about.
Member of the media: "Mr. Jobs, what product will you be unveiling today?"
Steve Jobs: "This is the new Ipod, it can play music, movies, make coffee, and print U.S. currency. It is really great"
Another member of the media: "What price can consumers expect to pay for this amazing device?"
Steve Jobs: "I will answer that as soon as I get back from the restroom, I just had a major wet daydream."
