Its like I know theres a problem with me, that the thoughts aren't true, but I just cant convince myself...hard to explain. I just want to feel like I have my family back.... Ill be seeing a pdoc soon, but im just interested if this sounds like it could be something more than just anxiety/ obsessive thoughts...
my own treatment providers call this by many things.....normal philosophical thoughts, obsessive thoughts, psychosis, delusional thinking, manic thoughts, and many others too.... it all depends upon other accompanying symptoms ...

Im glad you will be seeing a pdoc soon, they will be able to tell you if this is normal or a mental/medical symptom of other things with in you.
