Hypervigilance and Psychopathy

I have this thing where I suspect many people I know of being a secret sociopath/psychopath/narcissist. It may be paranoia, it may be my hypervigilance. Maybe my paranoia was being caused by being damaged or placed into codependency from time to time by these kinds of people.

Does anyone else think they’re a magnet for these kinds of ■■■■■■■? Strange thing is, there’s something admirable about their cavalier attitude toward life, if they weren’t so dangerous I’d like them.

I get paranoid that people are rapists or racist or psychopaths or sadists, pretty much stiff that could be dangerous to me or could lead to me getting attacked.

Relatable … I feel like Everybody whispers and stares at me

When I fell sick with severe psychosis 2 years ago, I thought that everyone was a psychopath out to kill me.
Be very careful, maybe you are becoming unstable.

Holy ■■■■ this is me

When I was at my worst, I definitely felt like this. Even my closest family was in on conspiracies against me, horrible feeling. I’m okay now, really. Just this is a recurring theme for me. Sometimes I even wonder if I myself have something wrong with me. But usually antisocial people like that lack the insight to their faults.
