Paranoia or suspicion

Rarely I get the feeling that others are trying to make fun of me. I feel suspicious. It only happens once every few weeks. Its probably the reduction of risperidone from 6 to 5mg. Its very subtle. I can’t go back on 6mg as it made me choke in my sleep.

My paranoia always comes with anger issues.

The oft spouted advice is to cut the meds low enough that there is just a little break through symptoms.

Yeah I get that too especially when I am unwell or even just stressed out about things.
Have to remember most of the time I’m wrong about it and even if I was right - blowing up about it isn’t going to make anything much better.

I think they are the same. Based on the fact that I feel suspicious (paranoid) when I smoke weed.

From what my pdoc said I guess I’m having a little paranoia. It can get to you if you fixate on it. I try to remind myself it’s in my mind and think about something else. It can be hard though if there are constant reminders.

I am lucky I don’t have that. If a group of people all laugh and you think to yourself: they must have laughed about me then you better be sure of it. From my experience that just doesn’t happen very often.

Yea it rarely happens for me maybe once a month so I am going to stay on my current dose.

Probably the problems are just temporary because you just reduced.

I reduced several months ago.

I have thoughts that people are saying bad things about me behind my back. This happens mostly when i feel rejected i start to imagine conversations between them about me.
