A lot of daydreaming that's disturbing day-to-day functions and concentration etc. sounds like maladaptive daydreaming - I struggle with that as well. Usually that's not a condition on it's own, it's a symptom of another - most likely anxiety, sometimes depression, sometimes autism or OCD or the like, it really depends. Obviously I'm not diagnosing you here but I'd say - go see a therapist! And if you can't (like me), it helps trying to understand what your daydreams are giving you. An escape? Why do you need to escape - what problems are there in your life? Are there characters in your daydreams giving you validation? Sorta self-therapy yourself and dig deep into it all until you can get professional help. Try journalling or writing it up somewhere where no one else will see it :)
