My pdoc met my husband for the first time today and as they were talking about me, he mentioned how paranoid I am in everyday life. Didn't know this about myself. Surprised me. Something else to worry about.

Nah don't worry about it. I get paranoia too. I just try to tell myself its not true and no one is out to get me and then I move on. Its hard but I don't focus on it 24/7.

Thank you Hallie Beth. I feel like being sick about my pdoc reading these messages is paranoia and proves him right. I feel like such a stupid girl. I'll try not to worry about it but it is so hard for me. I didn't even realize that some of the things I "worry" about are paranoia until today. I thought I was aware of myself. I don't know how not to "worry" about what people think, or say, or do about me. I don't even know how I'll recognize it to learn how to stop it. I didn't even know it was a problem (unless I'm highly depressed or manic) and it turns out, according to my pdoc, it is one of my biggest struggles.

I can understand your fear about having your threads out here , But seriously he's not going to be stalking you online.

But if your really worried you can ask one of the mods to remove this post or others.



Plus you could always remove your photo ... That would help sooth your fears.

I think from time to time we do "worry" about what people think, or say, or do about us" - it sucks! By nature some of us will be more prone to think about this more often than others (and a lucky/unlucky few who probably don't worry about what others think - because that within itself can have consequences too). Maybe it comes down to self esteem? And by working on self esteem as one of the factors (because I acknowledge that there could be others) it could help build a solid foundation for you to begin the process of not worrying as much about what others think ..... Just thought I'd put this out there.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
