Escapism philosophy

Escapism can be explored along the lines of language, philosophy, and psychology. In the dictionary, escapism is a “mental diversion from unpleasant or boring aspects of daily life, typically through activities involving imagination or entertainment.” In philosophy, it is “the attempt to avoid awareness of aversive beliefs” contradictory to your own. And in psychology, “the tendency to escape from the real world to the safety and comfort of a fantasy world.”
