I've been living in a fantasy world my entire life, and don't know how to get out of it. It started when I was little. Actually, I don't know when it started, as I've been doing this as long as I can remember. I'd stare out into space & create a fantasy world, full of characters that were very real to me. It started with fairies, princesses, vampires, and other fantastical things. Then, as I got older, it developed, into lifelike human beings, with histories and well-developed stories. I'd do this for hours every day.....whenever I got a chance. It was an escape, which seemed harmless. The problem is I never grew out of it. Instead, it got worse and worse, and I'd develop the characters more and more. I had few friends & never spent much time with them or my family. I was so far into my own world that I never developed any empathy or connections with anyone. I never wished anyone any harm; I just didn't know how to talk or feel anything for them. I block out anyone who try to reach out or prey into my life or feelings. I wonder if there is hope ......
