My delusions my thoughts are at such a high state of the worst imaginable thing in the universe happening to me,
I’m at such a pinecal of so much paranoia head spinning 24/7 in such fear I don’t know what to do.
Help me.

I get paranoid too but I have reasons
Have you talked to your doctor about the increased symptoms?
If you’re that bad off it may be time to contact a crisis center or consider going to the hospital.
No I have not,
I just don’t know what to do,
I need someone to talk to or something I can’t handle living
Then you should go to the hospital.

Your probably right,
Like do you have any advice if you are like out of control,
Any coping methods you know to have like any feeling of safety.
I can’t handle the reality that is in my head.
Not really.
I know that @Ninjastar gave me some good advice when I was really anxious,
Something about engaging all five senses.
Do you have a PRN? Something you take in the event of an emergency?
Some things I do to calm down are:
Put an ice pack on the back of your head. This will cool down your brain and reduce activity in your limbic system, where emotions happen.
Do a task with simple, clear steps. I like baking. I follow the recipe, and it’s easy enough that I don’t get frustrated, but it requires enough concentration that I don’t have room to think about other things. Cleaning also helps.
Engage your five senses. This will remind you what is real and what isn’t. Listen to soothing music. Smell something pleasant, like an essential oil. Suck on a hard candy. Look at pictures of things you enjoy. Feel something with an interesting texture, like a piece of Velcro or a stress ball.
