Do you think I'm escaping realty?

Recently I've been spending most of my time either reading/listening to novels and getting lost in day dreaming. Just a few days ago I read a Chinese web novel for about 12 hours straight! I'm actually spending hours day dreaming too which is not new to me. I tend to day dream a lot and spend a lot of time in my imagination. I'm starting to think I'm escaping reality. I also drink alcohol time to time which could be another form of escaping. If you check my profile you will see that I made a few posts about my drinking problems and general sadness.
