Does day dreaming help?

Its all imagination when we do day dreaming, well daydreaming takes us off our immediate goal. But incidenttly a persons mind wanders here and there in search of answers for what he seeks in factual life. As a matter of interest do we remain active during such episodes?

I've gone out of this "zone" before. Not sure if it was day dreaming, but I didn't like it. My mind seemed to wander into a different dimension, and as soon as I came back in "our world" I felt this jolt of pain throughout my body. It was uncomfortable. And, I find this happening when I think of things that disturb me. Overall, I don't think it's overall a good thing because it takes away our focus, but I guess it always helps people think outside the box.

in order to get away from reality our mind does dither from here and there and we just dont want to face the reality thus we take to dreaming and think if it were like that or so on
