I am diagnosed as Bipolar I and borderline personality disorder. Is it normal with bipolar to have crazy problems with paranoia. EXP. I think people are trying and plotting to hurt me in one way or another. I don't even trust all family members at times. I think people follow me and talk about me badly. Sometimes I think I just lost it. I even think my physical doctor is agaist me to the point that I refuse to go back.

i dont know but i can relate

I have paranoia issues. I'm diagnosed Schizoaffective from Bipolar, because my psychosis is a prominent disturbance with my mood symptoms. If you have psychosis and paranoia out of mood then talk to your doc about Schizoaffective illness. I you just have paranoia, ask about strategies to conquer it. If you only have paranoia then you are still Bipolar.

i sooooooooooooooo can relate to u..... someone can be talking with another persons an i find myself listening to make sure they arent talking about me. and if i cant hear what they r saying and they start laughing i automatically think they r talking about me.. and my guard goes up and im get angry at them.. knowing damn well they 9 out of 10 they arent talking about me.... but that one chance winsin my head and they end up becoming my enemy even though i dont know them...... sorry im babling.. just want u to know i know what ur going through
