What Causes Someone To Develop Imagination Of A Girl?

Hi doctor,because of traumatic past - bad parenting and a love failure,my husband developed an imaginary character of a girl and now believes he has seen her in reality. In reality the girl whom he thinks is his dream girl,is of a good character.he is working.but when his thoughts are not good,he is asking me to go away.he is not betraying me but needs help.he is a perfectionist and still plays some sports.but that girl is fully occupied in his mind.he told me that he is unable to think about me. What could be his problem? His mind change are clearly visible in his face.please advise.

Psychiatrist, Dr. Abhishek Kapoor's Response

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, he has psychosis. May be he has visual or auditory hallucination. In that case, he needs proper treatment with antipsychotics. You can consult a psychiatrist and get him properly evaluated. Without mental status examination, it is difficult to tell exact problem. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
