"My child is perfectly fine" Your child imagines themselves in fictional universes being friends with their favourite characters as a coping mechanism, but simultaneously doubts whether they'd actually get along with them cause they're used to rejection, thus, feels guilty for wasting their time instead of being productive and working on their missing assignments, however, they can't function without practicing their personal form of escapism and if they don't allow themselves to daydream they become deeply depressed and anxious, which is why they continue doing so, even though they know they'll regret it later on, but they can't ask for help because that would mean admitting that they're a failure and disappointment and they know they can't escape the vicious cycle, secretly wishing they could just forever leave this realm of eternal pain resulting of the idealistic, capitalistic society that gradually contributes to the destruction of the planet, hence, dooming the entire population and making us work until our inevitable death due to the consequences of climate change and our own stupidity.
