debrayar

To trip out or get lost in a paranoid train of thought that lacks logic or justification. (The term comes from the French word meaning to declutch a car engine, metaphorically describing a mind that has disengaged from reality).

Thinking someone does not love you or care about you just because they did not call or get back to you exactly when they promised is a classic way to debrayar.
