Does it help having a name put to the thoughts and feelings?

Definitely! I always knew I was paranoid but didn't fit the 'CIA are out to get me' definition of it so yet another thing to add to the confounding of my own perceptions. So to have a Pdoc relatively independently give me PPD as a dx was very validating.
I dunno about dealing with paranoid stuff so well, I'm sure other people have ways and means of coping with these fears and experiences that I don't know about and that could be helpful. Even just sharing common experiences is helpful and less isolating.

My phone is my way to feel 'less noticeable'. I don't know if it brings more attention to me or not, but it keeps me from watching for people looking at me.

Lol I love this, I think it's great. So many people use mobiles in public that it's hardly likely to stand out as something odd is it? And it sounds like a really useful type of 'defence'. Good idea!
Thanks for replying Chris
