I'm feeling a little disturbed

Merla

My parent called me upset that she had received notice that a family friend had just passed away unexpectedly. She had this whole elaborate story abut how she received notice via a phone call and was quite upset about this as this is someone she interacts with in the present. Her recollection was so vivid and her emotions so real so I believed her but wanted confirmation. So I texted this person and they are alive and well.

I just found this so disturbing. I really believed the passing to be true for 10 minutes. It's a total fabrication or hallucination or terrible dream that blended into reality. This is a new symptom which I just find so disturbing.
