Just wanted to see if there are any others out there who find Disneyland the great escape from reality? I can afford to vacation about anywhere I desire but I always choose Disney. I am a grown adult who still feels the "magic" every single time I walk through the tunnels into the Magic Kingdom. Although I am disappointed with the current condition of Tomorrowland and absolutely heartbroken with California Adventure, I keep going back to visit several times a year. Do I have some sort of disorder? Is there a cure? Help!!!!

LOL, there's no cure, except to go again that I know of!
I am infected with Disney magic also, so much so that it's the only place our family goes also.

I can't understand why I don't get sick of the place. I once had a season pass to Six Flags Magic Mountain, and after going every other weekend for a year I now can't stand the place. But after years of visiting Disneyland about every other weekend I still get home and check all the fan websites to see what's going on. It's crazy that I'm addicted to Disney!

I am there every month as well. As soon as I am through the turnstile I get a big smile on my face that lasts the whole time I am in the park.
I definitely think Disneyland has some addicting qualities!!!

You're not alone!
I try to go every other weekend, or else I go through withdrawls. (Like I'm currently doing, since I'm recovering from major surgery from a couple weeks ago.)
I always refer to Disneyland as my personal sanctuary, but my friends are now at an understanding with me - I explained it as some folks needing their coffee every morning, and I need my Disneyland twice a month.;)
You are among like minds here.;)

Disneyitis.
Uncurable, though treatable. I have the same thing. When I get my Driver's License (6 months, almost exactly) I plan to go every Sunday, or more.
Everyone else: "You'll get bored."
They know nothing, though.

It's sad, though...
I myself have a case of Disney-itis, however the movies do not help, only the Magic Kingdoms, and Happiest Places on earth seem to alleive the itching....
As I may not be back to the USA for a long while, I hope they will see clear to put one in here in Australia.
Until they do..... Help me, Obi-Mousepad-nobi, you're my only hope !!!
Seriously, even visiting Disneyland vicariously through reading Mousepad has become a pleasure for me !!
