i cant identify it correctly but i guess its related to my paranoia specifically fear from people as they are following me and going to harm me and threatening me

I felt generalized anxiety when I once quit benzodiazepines. It felt like the walls were coming closer. It was unpleasant.

I become fearful a lot
It’s all related to my schizophrenia and OCD.

Paranoia and anxiety is just awful, and so chronic

I’m not sure if this is the same, but I feel paranoid a lot, sometimes with no trigger. I remember my first intense experience with it. I was at a mall (crowds may have been the trigger) and I felt people were watching me. A friend was with me and I pointed out people on the staircase that I had gone to college with me. I told my friend they were smirking at me and talking about me. She said nobody was on the staircase. I felt so afraid after that. But paranoia itself is like the feeling of doom that some people get before they have a severe allergic reaction or a heart attack. It’s anxiety mixed with a sense of something about to go really wrong. It’s a raw emotion that feels a bit different from fear.

I feel fear in my head for no reason a lot and I don’t know how to deal with it either

I get a lot of adrenaline anxiety out of nowhere sometimes too. I wish it would stop
