I am coping with maladaptive daydreaming since 2023 may and it is not getting better I encountered with this name last year around June and I have been taking several steps since last year now with efforts of 5 months I don't feel any urge to daydream but I still don't feel motivated no dopamine just numb and I have difficulty in learning things I am a jee aspirant currently living in kota and spend almost everyday alone so I just don't know whether I would turn back to normal 100% or will I be stuck in this loop forever whereas I have done some research over md it floods brain with dopamine and earlier during nov last and till Feb this year I use to feel those depressed thoughts but I have overcame that depression phase and I daydream and I cannot snuck out of it anytime it's not hard but still I don't feel that dopamine during studying or living normal life how much would it take to turn back to normal?

As you have said , you are not able to cope with the situation right now. Your symptoms of day dreaming need to be further explored in terms of continue, associated thought process, associated symptoms etc. After evaluation of symptoms profile and impairment in your personal, academic domain, management in form of therapy along with some medications will be needed. Your query is how much time it takes to get you normal or motivated for your study or daily routine, it's depend on symptom severity, duration that can be commented after detailed history taking regarding your symptoms
