Erotomania, I guess?

I don’t know if this topic should be put under the category about “unusual beliefs” Im a little confused right now. The good thing is that I’m seeing a psychiatrist next Thursday and he will probably increase my meds.
But here goes.
Im wondering if Im experiencing erotomania. i know a person but it is like that in my mind he splits into two persons. There is the real one that I know, in this real world, and then there is an imaginary person. Like Im making up this perfect lover that I’m destinied to be with. A person who is like a prince in a fairytale, perfect/flawless.
I was even starting to believe that this relationship is important for the whole world (which I believe is called some kind of grandeous thinking). But in my mind, I have to be with this guy, and if we are not together, then the unrequited love/unhappiness will affect the whole world. Actually I think that all unrequited love in the whole world is created by my mind or my lovers mind.
Don’t worry I will be on meds, maybe even hospitalized on Thursday, I just want to share my thoughts and the psych nurse was really busy today.
Do you think that is erotomania, grandeous thinking or something like that?

Couldn’t tell you but I had erotomania years ago in hospital over a guy I worked briefly with it was very confusing it seamed so real but once the tablets kicked in I got over it pretty quickly it is sad to have a relationship that never was

Yes to be honest I can’t wait to be medicated again. Im a little sick of being delusional. Was it what brought you to the hospital or were you already psychotic?
So erotomania has something to do with a person that you are not in fact romantically involved with?

It sounds like it might be the start of psychosis.
Good luck with the medication :heart:
