Hi. I'm scared for my mental health. I don't know if im imaging things but i feel like I'm getting weirder and weirder. I have diagnosed PPD (Paranoid Personality Disorder) and bad Health Anxiety. I'm worried things will get worsen. I know there isn't a bunch of recognition to it. What will happen to me? Will I go insane? I've had these thoughts for a few years they worsened. I'm worried one day I'll take action of my thoughts. Like when I think someone is going to backstab me (literally and figuratively) or kill me I don't do anything instead I try to brace myself for the "attack" but one day I was at therapy ( i dont go to therapy anymore) in the waiting room and I was wearing a baggy sweater and some boy said "look at her it looks like she's wearing a trash bag" I turned kind of red and I really believed he was talking about me and staring at me. And I kept looking at him and he was looking at his phone the whole time talking to some other girl. But I thought he had his phone camera towards me. I was going to curse him out but then I got called on. When is this going to end for me.

Hello fgw: I see this is your first post here on PC. Welcome to Psych Central.
You mentioned you're not in therapy anymore. You didn't mention if you're on any psychiatric medication. Perhaps some ongoing therapy along with the possible consideration of some appropriate medications might be things that would be of help? At the end of your post you asked when this is going to end for you. The way it is going to end, from my perspective, is to get the professional mental health care you need. I hope you do. But, in the meantime, I hope you find PC to be of benefit. |

Hi there.
I’m sorry that you’re having a tough time. As Skeezyks said in the above reply, it could be worth seeking the help of a doctor, be it a psychiatrist or perhaps your GP, with regards to medication options. A medical doctor will know what may work for you, so it is worth at least asking, because I understand that in some cases, one may need something alongside therapy in order to be able to work through things more effectively. See it as a sort of lifebuoy/raft to get you managing your symptoms to the point where you can seek therapy. I have no idea what would work in terms of medication, but if you do have a GP or psychiatrist you trust to explain this to, just as you did in your post, that could be really beneficial. I have been told that I have components of PPD, and understand how frustrating yet real these feelings are. All the best,
