I used to think that everyone did this - wrote whole stories in their heads, with original characters, backstories, etc. I mentioned it to a non-ADHD friend and they were like “that sounds like a whole lot of work just to jerk off…”
For the first 12 years of my life I had an ongoing “this is what reality is” story in my head that I worked on basically daily. It was a model, or an explanation.
I stopped when I got seriously into videogames
Read the meme, upvoted, then read the title. Yikes.
Well if there weren’t so many fascists in major positions of power then I wouldn’t spend so much time daydreaming about their death. I’m not killing random ass people in these daydreams

Ah yes, because day dreaming while having ADHD is known to be super productive. /s
The meme is literally about how you daydreaming with ADHD due to the community that it is in. Did you miss that? Because trying to say “Oh you with ADHD who has a problem getting things done, I require that you get things done in your daydreams” makes precisely zero fucking sense.

Well, you see, with ADHD comes a thing called uncontrolled daydreaming where you randomly start daydreaming. I, having been the victim of abuse, often daydream about murdering abusers who are in the most powerful position imaginable and abusing everyone underthem. I, also, don’t give a flying fuck what some random dude thinks when they walk into the wrong room and start preaching while under the influence of complete ignorance about where they are and what they’re talking about.
You do not know the situations of people or what they are going through. Your preaching is unwanted and unwarranted.
You can leave.

Good catch. Taking mine back. Killing isn’t necessary in a day dream. Literally anything could “happen”
Sure. I could daydream Putin choking on a banana but it’s more fun to imagine me killing him personally ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
We should figure out a way to aim the positrons bananas generate and aim an entire bunch.
😂
I still miss some of the people that lived in my fantasy from when I was a lonely 20 something.
I do this too, though I have one scenario that I replay variations of where a disgruntled employee comes back with a group of mercenaries to take revenge and “do damage to the company” and I take them down John McClane style.
I of course am handsomely rewarded by the company and both respected and a little feared by my coworkers. That’s usually where I snap out of it since that’s the most unbelievable part.
At best a limp handshake and a $15 gift card for Shake Shack.
Shake shack sounds better than a gift card to Shack Shack
Nah, their high class, it would be a printed off certificate and a pizza party forgetting that I’m severely lactose intolerant.
When I was growing up I sooo had this! It was a universe that had every character I liked from books, shows, movies, comics, etc. It lasted for well over a decade, but it became super draining on my mind as I got older since I couldn’t turn it off… And, most likely autism driven, I would often verbalize the sounds and actions playing in my mind. It took a lot of mental effort to finally end the story!
Reason why I have a comic and DM ttrpg really lol
I tried doing that but kept getting getting stuck trying to think of how to continue the story and just starting over endlessly.
I do this, i so far have created a better world.
You can remember what you were thinking about earlier? 🤨🤥
Paracosms are fun, no?
