AM I REALLY BEING WATCHED

---

I can't understand all of what you say because you don't spell all of your words properly and you use no punctuation. We can't help you through writing if you don't communicate clearly to us the same way. Aside from that though, I have another question: when you say that "they" ruined your life, who are you talking about? I didn't quite understand that.I think what you seriously need is something to accomplish. You seem to be living a crappy life right now, so you've got nothing to lose. If there's any one positive thing you've ever dreamed of doing (and I mean positive as in something good that will help you get out of where you are), then try to accomplish it since you've got nothing else to miss out on. Whatever you may think, you are better than you make yourself out to be and the potential layed out in front of you is seemingly endless. You can overcome anything if you set your mind to it, and don't let yourself or anyone else tell you otherwise.Know that revenge will prove nothing, but by making something better of yourself you'll prove whoever you hate that they're wrong about you and that they're the weak bastards - you can be the strong one by improving yourself.

I have the same problem [ lack of understanding ], Hopeless, how old are you? I think you should find some social activities and take your mind off work, school, ect and just relax man.

sorry 4 the non use of punctuation its coz im typin quick and thats they way itll stay 2 those with the incouraging comments thanks loads seriously but 2 me i really think its a day 2 day feelin i just cant rid the thought that ulot r just suckering me in 4 a joke i just dont know it feels like my whole life is going 2 be like this and it hurts loadz im only 22 and yet i feel so incomplete i wish i woz smewhere else doin smthin else but even then would shit feel different but smehow i do think so im just so depressed i really feel 2 end it all now but going out like that would be like im letting so much get away i i aint willing 2 have that just quite yet people 2 meet etc ha so i think that option can lay dormant 4 a while but serious im thinkin 2 my self as i type this is it worth it shits crazy i really dont know what path 2 take i look back at my life and i see so many defining moment times i should hve grasped tight bfre i felt like this its just torture pure torture i wonder what tommorrow will be like?

hey think of how you feel. You do not enjoy it, right? Well think of what is causing you to feel that way, your fear of being watched or tricked or something. No picture how you would feel if you were to not have that fear. Picture how you would feel. Hold that in your head and understand that fear is a normal human response to what we do not know. So take that picutre, of you not worrying or caring about what you are currently afraid of, and make it a reality. I know that it will take work, but just remember how you will feel, how much happier, free, and open. You will notice new lovely things. Try that and let us know how it goes.

Yeah, Walken knows what he is talking about, he is a 1000+ member!

I really try to help people. I love this site because i enjoy doing this.

No offence, but I don't think it's a wise move to diagnose somebody with paranoid schizophrenia just because of a single thread they wrote on an online forum..(That's in response to whoever it was that said that..)

So do I, but I am not that experienced, but I give advice when I can, and if I can't, I'll say a little joke to show that I noticed.

I take the point about online diagnoses, gordon888, but Hopeless really needs to get to a professional and get a proper diagnosis and treatment. To ignore the likelihood (extreme likelihood, I'm afraid) of schizophrenia would be wrong. Either this is someone with it, or someone pretending to have it - I can't see anything else remotely likely.

We're just recommending what's in his best interests and doing what he came here for: help. Although not all of the responses were the most supportive, most of us are just trying to provide positive support.

well. think about it. Why would anyone be watching you? Look at some of the biggest real life stories involving a person being watched. Wow a few guys in a car outside your house keeping tabs on a drug lord or a spy. Nobody is watching you through the comp or anything. Computer monitors are not 2 way means of communication. They simply dont take input. Trust me... Speaking of computers, theres security tools and settings that can make it nearly impossible to be hacked into if you're afraid of that.Well just lemme assure you, i dont know how important you are or anything. But the world doesnt revolve around you.If you were a spy or a serial killer or a big criminal maybe you could worry about beign watched. But the stuff you described, lemme assure you. Just not gonna happen.I guess you could worry about someone stalking you. But really, even the best stalkers cant keep an eye on you 24/7. I guess you could worry about something like humanity is just some kind of alien experiment and all around there are invisible aliens watching us. In which case you really couldnt do anything as there is no evidence of such a thing and i doubt you could find any. So meh. Just chill out. And if you're afraid of spy satalites or spy planes. Just forget it. Do you know how expensive those things are? You think they're going to spend that ammount of money to watch random people? And you dont see too much of the hundreds of thousands of people it would require to keep track on every American citizen coming forward now do you.My dad used to work for the NSA in that kind of field. It really deals mainly with stuff overseas. Like China or warzones. So just dont worry about it.

I know that you're trying to help, but you just gave him so much stuff to freak out about. I don't think he even considered aliens before!!

well... its ok to be a tidbit paranoid. I sometimes feel like the buidling i live in his haunted. Just dotn let it paralyze you.

Aliens... meh, who gives a crap if they watch us. Why would they be watching him? As high as their technology is supposed to be according to people's theories, i doubt they would bother to watch all the human race. It would take technology that isnt even concievable. Well, then again the Matrix kind of went into this. But who gives a crap if your body is powering a giant computer? You still live and die all the same, just in a fake reality and with everyone else too. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I hope this doesnt worry the guy. Because its all rather silly, if it was true, well we're all in the same situation as Hopeless. Just dont worry about it

Only person you should worry about is the big G-O-D :grin:

Laggyman keep your mouth shut, please. There are certain things you do not need to mention...So nice job.

at least i look at his claim legitimately. Saying "Oh you're just skitzophrenic" doesnt often appeal to a person. So i explored the ideas of being watched honestly and dismissed them. Or at least gave good reasons not to worry about it. You act like hes a dumbass and can think for himself which isnt necessarily the case. As if i'd just mention something else, and hes that fucking unstable that he would become paranoid about it. I think i did a pretty good job at dismissing them. I could certainly go further if he wants to debate the idea of him being watched.

I would never trust a shrink nor medications. Of course a shrink is going to diagnose you with a load of crap.

I once got my arms stuck bent at 90 degree angles through lifting weights. I went to the doctor, my aparents just happened to have read of this thing recently called marfan syndrome that they thought i had. And guess what, the doctor thought i had it because theres they see a possible conclusion so they look for the evidence to support it instead of trying to build a conclusion out of the evidence. And it turns out i dont have it after thinking i had some terrible muscle dissorder for months. They even gave me medication for something i didnt have.

Hows a guy supposed to tell whether you're just going through a period of paranoia or you've got a freaking disease?? They dotn care, they get handouts from drug companies for promoting the drug. Ive worked for doctors, everyone who knows anything knows it works that way. And of coruse thats the first thing people who dont know any better will suggest, a doctor and drugs. I knew a guy, he had some problems alrite. But he WAS nuts after trying some medications. It changed his personality.

If he can dismiss his own fears, then thats a helluva lot better than trying to fix them artificially. Let him discuss what he says he paranoid of.

Its like the truman show. we get entertainment from watching you and you are the biggest hit on TV! uh oh i want supposed to tell you that. they are coming for me i got to get out of here as soon ..........

I live in Canada and have never had to feel paranoid of being watched. Maybe because I don't live in a city. When I do go to a large city, I can feel overwhemed if I think of it too much. I don't know where you live, but I could suggest moving to a smaller town wher there is less people.You shouldnt worry about people tracking you through your computer, unless you are involved in illegal doings, if you are, I suggest to stop, not saying you are though. The goverment is trying to track the people that are involved in terrorist activities. I dont think you are. You just dont want to make any direct threats to them and you should be O.K.Any wire device can be tapped, but yours is not I can asure you. Many have feelings of some form of paranoia. It's comforting to know that there is no way a T.V. can watch you. You have to try to realize that unless you are a spy, try not to worry. Do you have positive friends other than on this forum? Do you read books that influence you to be paranoid? Ther must be some childhood issue that might not had been delt with. I am not telling you to see a shrink, but maybe a counciler. If you are by yourself, do any drugs or spend too much time using the comp or watching T.V. it can be depressing. You really need to keep talking about your fears on this forum so others can help you find a solution for you.Ignore anyone that makes your fear into a joke, they obviously are scared to admit that they to have fears of something.

WHAT THE HELL R U GUYS TALKING ABOUT!?
