A member asked:

I think i'm paranoid, i have intense thoughts and find it hard to communicate with people without thinking they have some conspiracy to set me up?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: This sounds like paranoia with conspiratorial thinking. Please seek out the help of both a psychiatrist and a psychologist and get a full physicalexam and lab work up by your family practitioner. I would act on this quickly because the longer it lasts the harder it could be to get it to go into remission. Best wishes.
