Hi,

First of all paranoid personality disorder is different from schizophrenia. Don't worry yourself over that unless you are hearing voices or losing touch with reality. Don't be so hard on yourself and I'll try not to be hard on myself because I am the same way. I try to deny it but I just took that personality test and it came up saying very high for being paranoid. Not that the test is a diagnosis but I already know this about myself. I don't trust people, I am suspicious and I get hurt very easily. I always think someone has a hidden agenda. It doesn't help me with my social relationships. Right now I have alienated everyone. I don't know what the answer is either, but just wanted you to know your not alone. Sorry I couldn't be of help.
