Lost in Your Mind: Understanding Maladaptive Daydreaming and Reclaiming Your Time
ISMD x xTiles: A Global Partnership for Mental Health Awareness
We are thrilled to announce an official partnership between ISMD and xTiles. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for our association: xTiles has recognized the profound impact of Maladaptive Daydreaming and has invited us to share our expertise with their global community.
By providing a platform to discuss MD, xTiles is demonstrating a deep commitment to neurodiversity and mental health. This webinar is a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between productivity tools and the specific needs of our community, showing that with the right support and technology, reclaiming control of your time is possible.
You sit down to work, but hours slip by as your mind drifts elsewhere.
For many, this is more than a distraction—it’s Maladaptive Daydreaming: an intense urge to daydream that consumes hours and leaves you feeling stuck. Most people don’t know it has a name.
Join our live session with Valeria Franco, founder and advocate, as she shares her story of living with and overcoming Maladaptive Daydreaming.
We’ll discuss:
-
What Maladaptive Daydreaming is and how to spot it
-
Its overlap with ADHD, anxiety, and neurodivergence
-
Why willpower isn’t enough—and what helps
-
How Valeria uses xTiles to manage her time and projects
-
Practical tools for reclaiming your time
This webinar is for anyone who wants to regain control of their mind.
