I am getting very paranoid at work, analyzing everything that is being said and done and it is causing me a lot of anxiety. I am trying to keep it real but it is getting harder and harder to do....it is starting to affect my personal life. I really dont like where this is going, I never want to go back where I was last summer.

How did you move on from where you were last summer?

I have PTSD which broken down means I have chronic depression with major depressive episodes, panic attacks and very high anxiety. Medication has helped me the most. Without medication I couldn't even begin to learn and work at self help techniques.

I have found that even with meds and good self help skills I still am not able to deal with stress very well at all. When I let too much stress start building up in my life I end up feeling as you describe. If I let that go on for too long I end up in a paranoid delusional state - acting and talking very crazy.

Maybe the right meds, then learning self help skills and constantly keeping your stress level as low as possible will help you also. I hope you find something that works. I'm here if you need me.

I used to feel this way all the time when I was at work. Much worse even. I believed that co-workers were all against me, and trying to poison me.I was fired from that job.They said it was inadequate performance. But I know that was not the real reason. They believed I was mentally unfit for the job. I have a lawsuit against then now.As long as you don't act out aggressively like I did, then you should be ok. I always tell people, that nobody can hurt you unless they touch you.Words are just words and mean nothing to me at least. I hope you find a better way for dealing with the paranoia than I did.
