Increase your self-esteem by understanding how fantasies can protect you (1 minute read)

This post “Increase your self-esteem by understanding how fantasies can protect you ” continues with how you can increase your self-esteem by managing your thoughts and feelings.

 

Increase your self-esteem by understanding how fantasies can protect you:

Autistic fantasy is an immature defense mechanism where a person deals with emotional conflict and stressors by escaping into daydreaming and an inner fantasy world as a substitute for problem solving of the current situation.

Although daydreaming can be a normal and healthy activity, autistic fantasy substitutes daydreaming to an extreme degree and can result in difficulties in handling daily life.

It is a method for coping with stress. It may replace real healthy social interactions and behaviors with fantasies and daydreams.

 

For example:

Students who are bullied at school may retreat into a fantasy world based on their favorite movie or book. They spend their time in this fantasy world and may therefore get problems connected to social withdrawal.
