This is defiantly a theme and falls under health ocd. I share this obsession as well and am super sensitive to sounds and checking for sound in fear of hearing voices. This is reassurance, but you need to know that people who hallucinate or have schizophrenia do not get anxious about their symptoms, but rather consider them factual. No amount of reassurance is going to help you in the long run. Consider getting into therapy with an ERP specialist.

Omg, I gave the same thing. After stress I started being sensitive to noises and started imagining that I hear birds singing in my head, this made me reassure them with my bf every time I heard them in real life. I’m very scared I’m going crazy, even though I talked with my psychologist and she told me I’m all good need some time to recover after stress. However, now I’m very scared that I’m crazy for this obsession

You aren’t alone and you aren’t crazy. Anxiety is crazy strong and do your best to stay calm and do some self care. Remember people who are crazy don’t worry about being crazy. Only anxious people worry about it. ❤️

does anyone else experience extreme fear of developing psychosis or schizophrenia or derealization. I literally freak myself out so much that it makes me physically sick. I’m so scared of developing these and it keeps coming up all over my TikTok and Google. It’s freaking me out.

These past few days I was fine. Minimal intrusive thoughts ,no anxiety etc(to add I'm on medication so maybe it's starting to work although it barely is 2 weeks) and today I got a sudden wave of anxiety and it started latching on some thoughts like" what if I'm in denial and I wanna break up with my bf? And what if erp doesn't work for me because I actually wanna break up with my bf?" But they didn't really stay long usually those thoughts would make me spiral for days or so, now they lasted for some hours. And now I'm trying to trigger myself into being anxious again because if I don't it means I don't have ocd and if I don't have ocd it means I don't love my bf and if I don't love my bf it means I have to break up. Idk if it makes sense but the lack of anxiety makes me wonder if I actually have ocd or not.

does anyone else have an intense fear of developing schizophrenia or psychosis. This has been a really heavy theme for me as well. I’m constantly checking to see if I have symptoms or if I’m gonna go crazy or develop these. it’s so scary.
