Inside world, outside world

Posted by Deneb on August 8, 2005, at 20:12:23

Sometimes I wish I could just block the whole world out and live in my mind...is that a strange thing to want?

I can think of anything I want and live out any fantasy I want...it would be endless fun and excitement.

I live in my inside world a lot...I tend to "zone" out quite a bit. This makes me a bad listener and really absentminded sometimes.

I like my inside world so much, even when it gets dark and gloomy. I don't think there is a way to spend my life in my inside world. I have to worry about doing things to live.

Is it healthy to want to live life in one's imaginary world?

Hi, i can totally relate to wanting to live inside your head, it's nicer, quieter, [most of the time] and safer, i like to zone out when i don't have any responsibilities, sometimes i lay in my room and go to my rock star scenario, or some other cool place, and i could stay there for hours [forever?]if reality didn't beckon!! i met a beautiful girl at a party over the weekend, but she turned out to be too young for me, so on the ride home i just thought, "oh well, i will hang out with her in my head, lol, and i did, it was comforting!! hope that doesn't sound delusional, but we all need to have our "space" where we can zone out and be happy for awhile!! wishing you good thoughts....john

For me it's the dreams I have while sleeping. Sometimes I am the most successful person in the world. When I wake up reality returns. Sometimes i wish i could just sleep. Fondly, Phillipa
