Look around and observe your surroundings. Ask yourself what your concerns are, and then check your environment to see whether or not your concerns are tangible. Do you think people are talking about you, for example? ARE people talking about you? It's ok to ask!

First, think of what makes you that way, then take a few deep breaths and calm down. If you can, find a quiet area where you can be alone for a bit to clear your mind and body of stress and straighten out your thoughts.

Relaxation of some form can help. Trying to calm yourself by doing enjoyable things could also help. If you find that your paranoia is becoming unbearable then speaking with a psychiatrist may be of further help.

Although paranoia can be a very serious issue (seek a doctor's advice if severity is high), a way to decrease being paranoid so often is to occupy yourself with other things, so that you are not thinking of that particular situation so much

find someone you can talk through your worries with. sometimes talking about fears - even silly ones can bring a new look to things and help your mind out.

Identify what makes you feel that way. This is the first step to getting through it. For example, think about the experience you are going through and try to find a trusted person to confide in

Taking care of your thoughts helps, •Ask yourself how likely it is that the pessimistic thought you're having will come true.

The fact that you admit to being paranoid means that you probably aren't and just fear that you are. Consult with a therapist.

Let go of all the things that are stressing you out. Once you stop caring and do what makes you happy and not care what anyone else thinks about you then the paranoia seems to disappear.

meds can help but to truly get rid of it could take years. it will be hard but you can do it.it wont go away in one night just as you did not get paranoid in one night. but i believe in you.
