The last two days have been horrible, and now this thing on top of it. I don't even know what those words are supposed to mean together, and I can't meet up with my new T to discuss them until Wed.
paroxysmal paranoid tendencies means you are having paranoid symptoms. the paranoid symptoms come along with sudden outbursts of emotions. the emotions can range from sudden outbursts of laughter and on through the scale of emotions to extreme rage...

example.....

that person is out to get me, how dare they do this to me, (possibly getting so worked up that the person explodes into destroying, punching, hitting kicking what ever they do in extreme rage behaviors)

another example using the same situation...

that person is out to get me smiling, laughing and uncontrollable giggles/laughter.

Another example using the same paranoid symptom.....

that person is out to get me...sadness, depression and extreme depression, suicidal thoughts/actions...

these are just examples mind you. it can be any paranoid symptom accompanied by any sudden outburst of extreme emotion.that increases with intensity.
