I had a very sick PDOC who told me my anxiety was so bad it was almost psychotic.

Psychosis is losing contact with what is a real thought and what is made up in your mind. When you experience psychosis every thought that you have can be crazy and you believe it. You will find a reason and explanation in your mind to back up a psychotic thought. I thought time was the devil when I was psychotic, so yea I tried to lose my sense of time. You gain in a sense every thought you have into reality (your reality). Being psychotic was fun, but I would trade anything in the world for that to never happen. Then I would never have lost what I feel is gone forever now.
