I've been doing a lot of thinking, trying to list all my symptoms of bipolar, and I have just realized something.

when i am driving my car and the car behind me turns when I do,i sometimes get scared and think they may be following me (even though I really know they aren't)

when i am on the phone i be careful about what i say because i think someone m ay be listening to what i am saying (although i really know that is probably not true)

when I am at my apartment I try to be quiet, because i sometimes think that someone is outside my door listening in....but i really know that they probably aren't...

when I am driving i am so scared that someone is going to jump out in front of my car.....

i get paranoid a lot but i know that what i'm paranoid about probably isn't real......any thoughts??
