..sure!...it's much lovely to have a name!..

it feels sometimes ok...to have this one...to be bipolar...

and only bipolar...

but then I discover how paranoid I am...

and it could be my poorly chosen of substances?

and where the hell that came from?...

could just be my bipolar humanity...

but this diabolical paranoia attempts to unhinge me at my every attempt to be real...

so I recognise that...when I am paranoid....

it's about other people right!

and somehow I believe that I am responsible for every impression around me...

at home..on the streets....at the shops...in my own head

to me that's narcissistic...

and that's unacceptable

but ...I cannot stop it

Have missed you James. Came back tonight to try to deal with paranoia myself. Nasty topic. I plan to duck & cover hoping it passes over me. Maybe it won't see me if it thinks I can't see it. Then it turns to panic. Now counted breathing 1 2 3 in. 1 2 3 4 out. Nope doesn't help. Lame.

IMO, that doesn't sound narcissistic at all dubblemonkey. Paranoia is a symptom of mania for many people. It certainly was for me. (not hypomania, but intense mania)
During my longest and most extreme manic episode, it peaked with extreme paranoia. I thought the world was ending, everyone was out to get me, etc. (I literally thought the world was ending, and there was a conspiracy to get me, and I thought my mother's boyfriend tried to poison me, for no rational reason.)

It sounds like you are experiencing mania. I hope you come down soon.

Dubblemonkey, it does sound narcissistic. to me. But I am the same way. Why not own your evil instead of fluffing it??
