Is it normal that i make up stories in my head?

All the time I make up stories in my head. It can be about anything. Most of them are about me and my boyfriend doing cute couple things that I wish I could do with him in real life, but im in Cali and hes in Alaska. I start to think that im going crazy but I wanted to make sure. And because of these stories, im failing 3 classes with D-'s. How to I stop?! My mind just keeps going and its hard to just not think at all. I really need to stop making these stories but I dont know how. Ill do this in class or when Im bored with nothing to do. Ill tell everyone im sleeping but ill stare at a blank wall for two hours and think. Think, think, think, and think. Do other people do this? Am I crazy? How do I stop this? And Is It Normal???

    Yep same.
    I'm not sure how normal it is, my ex (not the crazy one) would always get really concerned.
    I'd just be sitting there and start crying out of nowhere.
    She would ask what was wrong and I tell her "I'm writing a sad story"
    Then she would keep a close eye on me for a while, regarding me with suspicion.

    my crazy mother would write long stories about her life that were full of fiction sometimes ten pages long all bragging about her fictitious life. one day i said fuck it and mailed it off in an envelope to her sister. hey i was board . beside that , they didnt have to live with crazy. i did.
