Sorry i don't know where to post this, but...o.k.some of you may know im depressed,but i think im suffering from parinoia(idk how to spell it.)also. the few times i go out, i always feel like im being followed.If some walks past me,i think they will try to kidnapp me.i feel like the pics and posters in my room are watching me.like they have cameras in them.and lastly,when theres space between the wall and the curtain,it feels like some1 is watching thru my window.but in the back of my mind,i know none of it is happening.so what do you think?is it parinoia,insanity...any replies are welcome.thanks.

Parinoia(sp)

The spelling is paranoia, and it's usually associated with schizophrenia, a form of psychosis. Do you hear voices inside your head, or that aren't really there?
It's very possible that these symptoms in your case may be associated with anxiety, rather than psychosis. I think you do need a professional opinion.
-
no i don't hear voices in my head or that aren't there.Thank you though.
-
Then I suspect it is an anxiety thing rather than schizophrenia. Both can be treated successfully.

In reply to: Do you hear voices inside your head, or that aren't really there? That question rates up there with "are you crazy?" Crazy people don't know they're crazy (beleive me! you can't reason with a crazy person!!!)This does sound like a pretty severe case of anxiety disorder though. Fortunately, it's a fairly well understood ailement and is quite treatable.

Nonetheless, it is a common question on most psycho-social evaluations.

but the TV people REALLY are talking to me... they tell me to do stuff.

I dont want uch TV but ycat talks to me, mostly to bitch about food, but still she talks to me she says meeroowaahhllll and it last for 10 seconds. just one big long noise.My computer talks to me too, when you start it up and it goes into windows and you click the start button, it starts then, it keeps going on and on till you select something thta doesnt open a new menu, it says "ohhhuy! touch me there !"when you open a program finally it says" uhhnmmmmmmm"Those are about the only odd things that talk to me though.
