I contantly think that someone is watching me or out to kill me. I can't sleep at night because I sit there thinking that someone is in the house, or going to come into the house so I don't dare sleep. When I'm in on my own I always walk around the house with some sort of object to protect myself with such as a knife. If I am not in alone, then I have placed objects like small vases around the house so if someone were to come for me I'd have something in every room to grab onto. I've become obsessed with checking that the door is locked, I even have become paranoid about if I can trust friends and family since I read online that more people get killed by the ones they know than by strangers. I have become terrified of the dark, and also feel like I need a light to be on in the house at all times so that anyone on the outside knows that someone is in. I've become terrified when I drive, the only time I drive now is to work and back and I am so scared the whole time. Every junction or turn I freak out that someone will pull out and crash into me or that my own brakes will fail. I get paranoid that people in other cars are following me, so often take turns not on my route as if to lose them.
