As for my definition of escapism, it's a way for me to stop thinking about my life and to immerse myself in an imaginary place.
As a result of this, I can't just daydream, because my thoughts would irritatingly find their way back to reality and I'd get depressed again, so I get out of this by playing video games, watching anime, reading books and browsing the internet.
Fortunately, I'm very conscious of what's real and what's imaginary so I'm not in danger of falling into an escapism...
