Hi all!
So well, I continue fighting. Its tempting to want to try new meds, but I tried all the possible 11 aps here in the past, with no result, so when its bad here, I try to reason myself, that I don’t need more switching, yeap… I know in some cases you get better on paranoia in months, but in the same time, it remains a very serious illness, so I should remain patient… I go out a bit more, but always in the neighborhood with few social contacts.
One of the worst things here are still my fears. Could you help me see if its still a paranoia or an anxiety? Maybe both?
well, I can feel as a bad person when I socialize still… I think a lot of what the others think of me or how they see me… In the worst moments, I could fear an eventual aggression… The feeling of mine is often wanting to hide… It can get physical, I have this conversion disorder (somatic), because of those fears so I cant be quite active, no…
But is it a paranoia or an anxiety? Or both? I am not sure you have a conversion disorder in paranoia, or maybe yes?
Hugs for all of you, lets continue fighting

Paranoia is just a form of anxiety. It is not a psychotic symptom on its own; paranoia, though common in schizophrenics, can happen in anyone. It’s paranoid delusions that are indicative of psychosis.
Also, have you been diagnosed with conversion disorder, or are you just assuming you have it? It’s not very common, but if you do have it, then it does explain why your symptoms are so… well… not psychotic.
I was diagnosed with conversion disorder, yeap… Its what makes me suffer often still, but I try to think less on it now and just to act. But all the pdocs, that I saw, say I have some kind of psychosis too. My last pdoc thinks I even have no negatives, but that its my paranoia who makes me so passive…
