Schemersensors can have a impact on your life when things have gone wrong and have left you with trust issues ! If you can notice the things or times your impacted the most by things that leave you feeling unsettled it might be helpful ! Getting a second opinion could be helpful as well đŸ˜‡

Lexi,

I was diagnosed with paranoia when I was fifteen (I am twenty-five now) after I was hospitalized for self-harm and the suicidal impulse. During my stay I was administered the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) which entails answering the same five to ten questions in five hundred different ways. These tests are used to better understand personality traits and what could be considered abnormal. I was also diagnosed with depression and anxiety during that time and was sent home to Trazodone and Zoloft. My mother took me off the medication shortly thereafter and I have remained un-medicated ever since. I am glad to hear you feels your meds are helpful to you as I prepare myself to re-approach my treatment and continue to grow increasingly less stable. Is your paranoia limited to your personal thoughts, or does it also affect your relationships and rational reasoning?

Best wishes.

Thank you, Lexi, for sharing. That sounds so overwhelming. I understand the terror more than I'd like to. Stay strong and keep working on you. I know how exhausting it can become.
