I Usually Get Paranoid About the Stupidest Things - Forum & Chat Board | Is this paranoia or logic? o_O

but every now and then I feel like something I would find hilarious, people would not find funny at all but stupid. and with that comes like a fear of rejection, type thing. as in "what if they don't find it funny?"

I dunno, is this other voice paranoia, logic, or what? please don't say a mixture of the two o_o

What you have to remember is that different people will find different things funny. What might be side-splittingly hilarious to one person might be stupid and annoying to somebody else. But at the end of the day, who cares? You need to get back to believing in yourself. You are funny, and that's what counts.

Paranoia is a tough disease to tackle. And it is a disease in my humble opinion. I have been seeing a shrink for 5 years now. The last med he prescribed was Ambien. He thinks if I get some sleep I might get less paranoid. So far it hasnt done much, as a matter of fact I found my self forcing me to stay awake anyway.

Im constantly afraid someone will break into our house

Im constantly worried that someone is watching me

And finally, I am terrified to be alone.

I was never depressed or paranoid until I hurt my self and am now disabled. All they do is keep pumping in meds........starting to get paranoid about the meds now as well................Im beginning to think that paranoia is a state of mind and a lifestyle. It has to be, seems that is the only way to handle it.

 I am also very particular when it comes to the security of our home. I'm afraid that somebody will be able to get in the house and kill us while we sleep. So, I usually check on our locks every once in a while, so i rarely sleep> in addition to that, I easily wake up whenever I hear something. Not sure if that's paranoia though. Like docholiday i also believe that it is a state of mind.
