Are these intrusive toughts?

Yes I had the exact same fear !!! I was super afraid that I had developed schizophrenia or was developing And it became this extremely unhealthy obsession where I looked up information on the internet and I knew I probably didn’t have schizophrenia but I always had to check that I wasn’t hallucinating I though that I was going crazy And this anxiety lasted for 6 month Until I watched a video about ocd and fear of going crazy and it all kinda just clicked Now I am not as scared anymore but I still think about it sometimes like what if ? I have learned not to give in to my research compulsions and have started to recognise that I’m not going crazy and that it is just intrusive thoughts so you aren’t alone !!
