Escapism

The ability to escape from reality to a world of fantasy.
Most of the world's great pieces of art, from music to film and paintings, all come from the artist's fantasies.
Escapism is the best way to leave your own life behind, and become king of your own little world.

Escapism

An addiction to doing things that make you forget the world. Someone that is a victim of escapism is often found in self denial about things in life, becuase they find it unbearable to face the world. A victim of escapism usually has bad grades, daydreams way to often and has major mood swings. They also have trust issues and are secretly wishing they were dead. escape suicidesuicidal lonely sad emo alone

Pervestis Arousal Escapism

(n); Mental disorder, PAE. Can become Chronic (CPAE), or Acute (APAE) depending on the strength of the associated urges. PAE in males is marked by a desire to be measured for clothes by an attractive young woman followed by a subsequent arousal due to the close proximity of her hands to the patient's genitalia. PAE is a replacement form of escapism where otherwise an extramarital affair or midlife crisis would have been the only other available options.

Harry: "He went to get measured for suit pants again."
Tom: "Again? He must have some serious chronic pervestis arousal escapism."
Harry: "It seemed pretty acute this morning, he was practically grabbing himself."
