” In the Positive and Negative Symptoms Questionnaire (PANSS) conducted during clozapine medication, delusions appeared, among other things,
hypervigilance, suspiciousness, narrowing of emotions, scarcity of interaction, withdrawal, little abstract thinking, lack of spontaneity and formulaic thought processes. In addition, she showed anxiety, tension, lack of insight, and mild verbal impulsivity.”

Those are negative symptoms but maybe you don’t have severe negative symptoms. Like it says “narrowing of emotions” , not absent emotions.

What are these classified as? ”little abstract thinking, lack of spontaneity and formulaic thought processes.”

4

Probably negative symptom.

Probably cognitive symptoms.

Yes, hypervigilance is paranoia. It means you’re always on the lookout for threats and can’t really relax.
