What you're experiencing is depersonalization and derealization which is not a symptom of psycosis... but can be very disturbing... I know! Delusions and hallucinations is the hallmark of psycosis aswell as word salad, unorganized thinking etc... like with schizophrenia. Although psycosis can be experienced on it's own without having schiz. I had episodes of it... and eventhough I knew what was happening I struggled to shake it. What do you mean specifically with telling someone something?

Yeah not so much of a feeling but it’s like I feel the world isn’t real that my whole life isn’t real and that someone on the outside is controlling things

Sometimes I feel weird and I focus too much on it because of my OCD and it gets worse. I’m OCDing on that feeling. If you feel you need to call your dr if it’s not ocd please do that.?

I don't really think psycosis is a feeling, can you describe what you are feeling?

It's actually quite normal for people with ocd and a super busy mind to say something and forget what they said or someone saying you said something and you can't remember... it happens, just keep an eye out for if it get's worse.

Yes for example I told my mom of what I hallucinated and how I felt. The next day (today) in the morning I was freaking out and she told me no it’s not real and then I told her what and she said the thing about robot. I had told her I hallucinated an office in my head I described it as robotic but I don’t recall telling her that. When I told her I don’t remember telling her she told me that she must’ve misunderstood ☹️ which only got me more paranoid.

I have been having these fears about developing schizophrenia, it reached a point where i am starting to almost hear things or the smallest sounds and my mind tells me you're schizophrenic, and i feel this weird sensations in my ear as if someone is whispering yet i can barely hear them, the thing is i am not diagnosed yet because i never work with an OCD therapist but i study psychology so i just used what i learnt to give a meaning to my suffering, many themes of this fear have been happening before and this schizophrenia fear is the last one. I want to know what advice you can give me or ways to make my brain calm down a little bit, i also don't have and can't afford a therapist that's why i am here in the first place I also want to know more informations or experiences with this theme if anyone habe experienced it and what helped you with it I remember feeling better for a while but than i collapsed back, but i am hoping to get better soon too or anytime in the future, I don't want reassurance so make sure you be as real as you can, and thanks 🙏🏻

I’ve never been diagnosed with OCD, but I relate so much to what people here are going through. I used to think it was just anxiety, and I felt like I could handle that. But lately I’ve been spiraling—constantly afraid that what I’m feeling is something worse, like psychosis or losing control of my mind. I feel so detached and scared, and I just want peace again. I have anxiety doing the smallest things, like the thought of waking up everyday and even eating give me straight up panic. I am afraid all the time, it’s paralyzing. And a lot of people say someone with psychosis wouldn’t worry that they’re in it, but then I convince myself I’ve been in it this whole time, and haven’t known, and that maybe I’ve been doing weird stuff. Idk. I also get really scared of labels. Even the idea of OCD makes me feel like I’ll never get better or like I’ll be stuck like this forever. I just want to be okay. If anyone has felt this way—confused, overwhelmed, or scared of what’s happening in their mind—I’d really appreciate any support or encouragement.
