Sudden Thoughts/Urges?

Unusual Beliefs
1

Does anyone else get sudden thoughts/strong urges out of nowhere? I have recurring ones -

  1. I’ll die if I leave my car, camper, the building, etc.

  2. I should buy a bunch of plastic sheets and cover the windows/doors just in case there’s a gas leak or something outside while I’m asleep.

  3. The car behind me is following me.

These thoughts seem to come out of nowhere and they’re almost overwhelming. I have to convince myself every time that they’re nonsense.

Does anyone else get similar thoughts/urges out of the blue like this? Is this a schizophrenia thing?

These are paranoid thoughts, definitely a symptom of schizophrenia, but also a symptom of other conditions like anxiety, ocd, or tons of other mental disorders.
