Like everyday I play with a yoyo or do something repetitive with my hands while thinking about stuff i wish i had or the life i wish i had or pretending im some protagonist from a movie i like or something. kinda strange, been doing it since i was little. is this normal?
Normal if all you want to do with your life is dream. If you want any of those things to really happen you should work towards a goal.
Look up maladaptive daydreaming, this is one of the symptoms. I used to go on the swingset as a kid and do this. I would also rock back and forth or bounce a little bit on the couch. Its weird, but I still do it from time to time when I am not busy. Maladaptive daydreaming is a disorder when it starts taking up your life. As long as it doesn't interfere with your life, your daydreaming isn't "maladaptive" by definition. You should write some of it down in the form of a novel if the repetitive motion gets too weird for you, my sister does that.
