Welcome
Seeing things that are not there, It is not just madness it is an ability that is useful. I am an artist and I have trained my mind to be able to imagine people and objects up in front of me visually, I know a lot of engineers do the same and will imagine accurate visualisations of machines when working through understanding them. As this is a not an uncommon ability, it is not surprising that a persons unconscious can conjure up realistic images too them. As your mother has an ability to make real images, and that your wife can do the same, you may find you can think in similar ways to your partner. Could you have this ability and instead of letting it go to wast you could you find it useful, control it and use the ability examine things at a distance.
