I see people do things like selfies, pictures of family, or even partial real info, like a first name . They post them on websites.
I advise them not to. Is this just my own paranoia. I feel maybe it is and I just dont know.
(They dont put all those things together.)
“Am I too paranoid about the internet”
No.
I understand where you’re coming from. I totally understand not posting selfies on here, for example. I’ve done it a few times a while back, but I get paranoid that one of my students or future students will see me on here, probably a ridiculous fear; I mean, what are the odds? My old username on here included my first name, got it changed to freakonaleash because I was becoming paranoid.
I feel like i worry or bother other people with this habit of mine. If I see it happen, should I just shoosh.
I am not guys… i dont have paranoia…!!
I would say you don’t really need to warn other people about posting selfies and such on the web site of their choosing. It’s up to them; if they want to do it, they can do it, not your problem.
I’m just a formal name here 
Ok. It is not that I protest it.
I just feel like I cause undue worry.
I’ve learned to just shush, yeah. Let other folks live free from my paranoia. They have their own problems already.
I break some of the rules myself, but that’s a whole other can of worms I won’t subject you to haha
i think in a perfect world we would be ourselves. but in this world of judgenment and consequence, it is better to be annonymous. i’m sad for this but it seems reality. there are bad guys out there who don’t love us.
It depends on how much they care about privacy, here it is much more dangerous to post selfies if you have a life.
I have so much to say on this topic guys I’m doing my best to play it cool 
What if normie make memes with our selfies? I was thinking at that some time ago
You are being cautious, not necessarily paranoid.
I am both paranoid and careful.
No real selfies of me, other than my hand or feet 
I can make a meme about myself: stable on his meds but paranoid"
I’m recklessly paranoid. When the concern gets to be too much, I go for broke and just completely open myself. After a while having psychosis, I kinda lost my sense of shame and privacy.
Don’t tempt me 
Really similar for me. I think it was depression. I was having so many suicidal thoughts my desperation outweighed my paranoia
Yeah, I hear a lot of people here who have a similar reaction to psychosis. It’s good to know I’m not alone.
Nowadays, I try actively to give people the benefit of the doubt when they do things that trigger my paranoia. I’m not sure if the medication helps or if it’s just me evolving. I hope it’s the latter, but maybe the meds got me here.
I am not in psychosis. I think i am just overly cautious.
