A man at my work last night

Gave me bad vibes. He was staring into my eyes. It looked like he wanted to say something but I looked away and he didn’t say anything after that.

It made me feel like he was gathering intel or something. Like he thought bad things about me and wanted proof one way or another.

Freaked me out.

Normally I smile at people and I’m friendly, but not to him. His look in his eyes made me very nervous.

Sometimes you have to trust your gut instincts.

It may just have been a guy who thought you were attractive and was trying to catch your eye. Unwelcome attention like that can be unnerving.

I’m not very attractive, but maybe he thought something less cynical. It just really creeped me out and I’ve been stressing over it

Since breaking eye contact stopped him from approaching you, he’s probably harmless. If he didn’t back off, I’d think he was problem.

Your thinking that he’s gathering intel is just the illness. I think you know and have insight on that because you put this under the Dx’d Sz/SzA category.

@HollyHobbie , I’m aware most people would say it’s just paranoia, but I’m not sure really if that’s what it is or not. I’m trying to use skills to remain calm and think as clearly as I can.
