Hey all,
My worries about developing schizophrenia have returned and I've started worrying about the time three years ago where I got confused between whether I was remembering a distant memory or remembering something that happened in a dream. I am convinced that that meant I was losing it and that my subsequent episodes of "memory confusion" only validate that fear. For example, today i was thinking about how my childhood friend was selling her family farm and suddenly I thought I remembered seeing on Facebook a post from her that said she sold the farm. I looked on her page and there was no such post, but the "memory" seemed pretty vivid at the time and I'm worried I remembered something I dreamed or am just having random thoughts that I'm believing are true.
I am going to refrain from reading about psychosis online but im just sitting here scared I'm going crazy and ruminating a TON about this

I had exactly the same thing a few weeks ago. I remembered I accidentally made a stain in my shirt and I remembered how I did it and that I knew after it happened that I knew it happened, but then the next morning there was no stain or anything. Maybe you should see a psychologist if you’re worried about having schizophrenia. Than you atleast know if you have it or not and you don’t have to worry so much about whether you have it or not.

Also today I was at a home decor store and saw the same wall hanging that my sister has in her apartment. I have always liked this piece of art. I knew right away that I recognized it but then I also had a recollection of my fiance seeing it in my sister's apartment and saying to me that he thought it was ugly. It was like an instant memory that felt like any other memory but i really don't think it happened and now I'm upset again.

Rythm, how often do you experience this type of thing?
