I find that the best way to stop being paranoid is to distract myself until those feelings go away. I would do things such as draw, play the piano, listen to calming music or go on a relaxing walk. Do anything that you love and will take your mind off of things. If they still won't go away, try an activity that will require you to use your brain, so that you can focus on what you are doing instead of your thoughts.

Stop using any labels towards yourself that are harsh or pejorative. You do not have to claim the label of paranoia if you do not want to. Fear is natural and healthy. Feeling uncomfortable around certain situations or people is a totally acceptable reaction. We can stop paranoia through loving processing of fear.

Cognitive behavioural therapy has been said to be benneficial to paranoia. Having a couple good friends who understand your condition can be very helpful too.

Paranoia cannot be stopped to my knowledge. Therapy may make it fade a little, but it will never go away.

A pallet, for example, is warm and soft. Feeling at ease by being vunerable is the sole to security.

I like to ask myself, the pros and cons of paranoia. I try to recognize what I am trying to protect myself from. Then, I consider whether that protection is worth the cost of paranoia.
