Paranoia? I Dunno Posted: 04-02-07 09:51am
Hmm, I was just wondering...does anyone
ever get any paranoid thoughts, just
randomly? Sometimes, I'm just walking
along in the street and if someone is
walking in the opposite direction, or
quite close behind me, I sometimes think
they're gonna just get a knife out of
their pocket and stab me. I also
sometimes think when people are laughing
or talking it's about me, and I have at
times felt anxious when someone knocks on
the door, mainly believing that when I
open the door they'll have a gun and will
try and shoot me in the head, so I sort of
half-open the door first to see who it is.
When I'm at work or something, I
occasionally expect to get a phonecall
telling me my boyfriend has been killed in
a car accident or something. Another one I
have is when I'm on a bus, I sometimes
believe someone has a bomb and it's going
to go off. I can't help thinking these,
and they seem to come out of nowhere. None
of these have disrupted my life in any way
though, so it's probably just normal.
As I say, I don't always think these
things, and I'm just wondering if it's
completely normal to think like this. I
know these are quite irrational.
Please tell me what you think, and if you
have similar experiences...
