The conversations in your head thing is perfectly normal, you know! Lots of people rehearse things in their head, even though they know they might never actually have the conversation in real life. So no need to worry about that. Daydreaming is also quite normal, everyone does it.

As for those whose fantasies are much more vivid and elaborate, why not write it all down as a story? I've never come across a writer who didn't have a vivid imagination and fantasies in their head, but they put it all to good use in their writing. Why waste good stories by keeping them to yourself? Write it all down and if it makes a good story then share it with others (don't forget to change the names of real-life people, though!).

Fantasy world=life away from life (:
School holidays are the best cause I can spend everyday indulging in being my ideal self and compensating for undesirable circumstances... enabling my "culture shock" difficulty coping with the outside world, thus enabling avoidance ):

Have you talked to your psychiatrist about this because that isn't avpd in my opinion.

i laugh and cry about things that happen in my "fantasy world" too. i think i do it because i don't show emotion in "real" life. I think i also care more about thepeole in my "fantasy" word than i do about people in real life. i guess because i control them, therefore no rejection/humiliation.
