Hello, today we are going to talk about paranoia. Paranoia is a mental condition characterized by delusions of persecution, unwanted jealousy, or exaggerated self importance. So, now let's talk about causes of paranoia.
Paranoia has three main types of paranoia: paranoid personality disorder, delusional disorder, and paranoid schizophrenia.
Drugs mostly cause paranoia. Methamphetamine, Cannabis, Cocaine, Amphetamine, etc cause paranoia. There is a cure, but paranoia feeling go away naturally. In addition, people don't take the cure because they think it will harm them. Hunter S. Thompson said " There is no such thing as paranoia. Your worst fears can come in any moment." Schizophrenia is the situation really causes paranoia otherwise drugs, alcohol, etc.
I personally disagree with Thompson. Paranoia actually exists while fears exists, too. Thompson's statement doesn't make any sense at all. Thompson is right about the fear thing, but I still disagree about the no paranoia thing.
You are experiencing paranoia if:
you spend most of your time alone
you perceive nonthreating remarks as insults
you are believing that others have hidden motives or are out to harm them
you are doubting the loyalty of others
you are hypersensitive to criticism
you are having trouble working with others
you become angry easily
you are detached or socially isolated
you are suspicious about other people or question their motives
you believe people are trying to trick or harm you, even if there is no evidence.
Okay, that was a LONG list of 'if you'. It was just a quick test-like thing. You don't need to fit everything on here. I actually am suffering from paranoia these days. At least I think I am. I fit with almost all of the things in the list above. I really get a lot of stress from paranoia these days. It makes school life hard. Very hard.
Oh, and if you have any questions about paranoia you want to ask me, just ask me in class or write comments down below. (I'm not experiencing paranoia because I took drugs or anything like that. I didn't take any drugs!!!!!!!!!!)
