    It’s so real everytime too, I get quiet and withdrawn and watch every move and take things very personally. I realize that I’ve been texting my friends way too much, so I completely stop talking to them and ignore them. I do this paranoia thing where I think (a small example) “they moved that cup to the other side of the table because they think I’ve drank too much soda” but little stuff like that all day, until I’m at the point where I believe this love one has had me strung out on lies and manipulation so I think I love them. Then I blow up and say no I’ve seen you do this this and this to me I know what you’re trying to get out of me, but in reality none of it makes sense and there was no real obvious threat but now I’ve already blown up and need to escape because the world is spinning and nothing makes sense. So I’ll like physically leave or break things. I know I’m wrong at that point but now I’m extremely upset/guilty that I spent days doing this to myself and loved ones drawing away from everyone. Anyway noticing and accepting my problems is the first step, it’s getting better everytime. Just so real everytime

      Stop telling me about me. I feel, no, I KNOW I am losing my relationship because of this paranoia behavior. It is so stressful and hurtful to both of us. 😢

    Perception problems are so sad, if they would only just look at things at bit differently they could be healed But most people just won't accept that they could be wrong about something especially when it involves themselves Paranoia seems shame based, these people have no trust in themselves, in others and in life How sad, because a slight shift in perception could change their entire life and all those around them

    Whoa. Okay, i know psychosis is now a symptom instead of a diagnosis, but man does this _ever_ relate to the cptsd I was labeled with. Definjtely sticking around; I feel completely at home. Bless you, ma'am 💓💐

      I have CTSD too. I have some psychosis, but not like this. I spend alot of time pretending I don't "know" that people hate me and don't want me around. I smile alot, am friendly and respectful and helpful and then I go home and feel like I'm a pos and deserve to die.
      Unfortunately, quite often, I'm right.

      @@DarkMoonDroid Sweet girl, please hear me through the darkness and consuming thoughts.. you are 10 000% worthy of living, and the fact you have the empathy to feel remorse even about things you cannot control is a testament to my words.. If there are any people who deserve to feel loved, you are in the top 10 of that list. Please, try not to let it all tell you I'm "just trying to make you feel better" or whatnot.. because that negative voice feeds only on saddening lies.. I swear.. ❤️❤️

    "I'm never right" lol I wish my ex would or could have figured that out. He was never right about his paranoia but it was just like each time, THIS was the time he WAS. He just knew it. Facts and logic where just diversions people laid down to try and get him to fall for their "lies". It's funny now, but at the time....it's very scary.

      Aiden, I'm sorry that I can't help except to tell you to talk to your doctor. The anxiety/paranoia you describe is uncomfortable, to say the least! But a doctor should be able to set you on the right path with therapy and medication (if needed and if you agree to them).

    I was considered possibly bipolar for decades. Turned out it's not so. Abusive family members and employers, as well as some friends, were traumatising me. It took a long time to sort out and I took a lot of meds I didn't need. I have learned to go for checkups, however, and to watch myself. It does take time. What was sad was getting attacked (sometimes physically) by doctors, coworkers, spouses and so on when they were confronted with their own guilt. Scary! Uprated.

    show them this video, tell them this is what theyre like and its detrimental to theirs and others' quality of life. see if it opens a door. if that doesnt work flat out tell them they are trying to control you through means of "guilt-tripping" which is what these people do. guilt-tripping is abuse and a means of control. tell them "i will not take your abusive guilt-tripping. you're using it to control me. please go seek counseling"

    I'm, 28 and.....oh shit I forgot, I don't have to announce my age before I write a comment ;) Paranoia hurts and it can get incredibly difficult to step outside wherever the safe or trusted has become (I was once too scared for several months to exit an abandoned building unless it was past midnight but before sunrise) I have learned that despite my fear and anxiety, that each and every time I get so dark that leaving the room/womb/tomb is unbearable in my mind that going out helps a bit.

      Hi Ashliegh
      You maybe right to be so negative. People are so unkind but there are a few good ones. Remain open to that possibility of having a good friend. Man or women or a your age boy or girl. It can take a very long time to find one. Better to think of them as acquaintances at first before you upgrade them to friends. At the acquaintance phase share ideas and activities. Friend phase one can open up and share personal stuff. If your really upset and its affecting your study see your doctor to see a psychologist. It can be very interesting to analyse your thoughts and emotions .

    I'm paranoid and I told my parents, but they don't seem to take it seriosly... I even tough that I maybe wouldn't tell anyone that I was paranoid because I tough it might be used against me. I try not to be paranoid, but sometimes I just can't help it.

    well i wouldnt say i have it as bad as you guys but i always think low of myself like ppl dont like me and if they look at me then i must have somthing wrong with me. plus like say if im on msn and i@ll be talkin to a person if it takes them a while to write back then i feel that they dont actually like me and they just talk to me because they are bored. im not sure if this is like a minor paranoiya if u can have that or i just have a low selfasteam im not really sure maybe its abit of both.

      Hi David. With these experiences you need to see a psychiatrist. You may be at risk of harming yourself or others and it sounds like you need to be monitored. I'm bipolar 2 and I'm so glad I got diagnosed. It helps to get the symptoms under control so they don't destroy your life and relationships. Good luck . Big hug

    I feel the same way, but i love conflict at the same time. I love horror movies, and that really doesn't help. So, if I go outside, I always bring a knife. Big, small, collapsable, holstered. everywhere i go i bring one. around the neighborhood, or across town. but sometimes i want that conflict just so i know i wont get in trouble if i stab them. I know, i sound ruthless, but that is the least of my fucked up thoughts.

    Both joey..and sector...if you smoke dope (marijuana) this could explain paranoid thoughts or you are in a situation which warrants such thoughts (some refugees suffer from paranoia because of the fact that they have undergone hostile conditions) If not the sooner your consult a therapist be better your chances are at nipping these thoughts in the bud and not becoming imprisoned by them...best of luck:) Don't feel embarrassed about having these thoughts most people have some form of problem.
