wow my fav topic.

yes, i call it my story it's not just a world but mutiple worlds bound together but yet seperated. the main story branched off so to say. i used to have complete control over it but i've lost that ability.

my story is an all cosuming force in my head, and it gets worse and more powerful with each passing year.

it was a story of adventure and it generated characters and universe to call home, sadly with my age it has become corrupt. but it once was something i was proud of a story i've held for 9 years.

basicly it was my way out of talking about myself and for the most part still is, but also it was my way of coping with all the bad stuff at the time.

but yeah i have my own world, my characters however have faces it freaks me out any other way. i hate distorted images.

but my imagination doesn't stop there it is very vivid causing some of the strangest dreams and thoughts i've ever seen.

my family says i live in the fantasy most of the time.

I still have a really great imagination. I can imagine things with my eyes open. I've always wondered if anyone else could do that?

I do it!

My son (AS) has said his imagination is broken. The only time he role plays, is if he sees it from a video game or on tv. Nothing he just makes up. And this came much later than the typical child (preschool age?) I don't remember how i was back then. I did have dolls. I don't remember if i fed them or talked to them. I just remember always changing their clothes. I think ,ost the things i had were more of a collection than play things. I think more, i am so not creative! My son lacks this as well.
That sounds exactly like me when I was a kid! Shocked

I do that alot since I was a child literally stuck in my own imagination Smile and I don't even have to do anything for it to happen but when I try and make videos, most the times it goes blank because I get really shy on cameras.

Ive gotten better at controlling it but I still imaginations all the time especially on the bus to college. And it sometimes leads me to talking to myself and getting stuck inside Smile

i always imagined myself being a NT when I'm around people... So they don't notice the weird side of me. Although it would sometimes lead me to daydreaming, which got me in alot of trouble back at primary school.

I'm so proud of my imagination, it made me go so far in my life Smile and it made me have a very good grade in G.C.S.E art Very Happy so having imaginations can sometimes lead to great things Very Happy

Being told something doesn't make it so

I have a fairly vivid imagination. I've been accused of being stuck in my own little world plenty (mostly by my mom).
