stop being paranoid

I’ve always been pretty paranoid, worried about what every other person thought or said..it’s a bitch sometimes

oh well… there are just some things you can’t control

well i have come to the conclusion that all my worrie and paranioya comes from self dout and beeing really scard of getting hurt or humiliated!! thats it thats all it comes from now iv figured that out iv gotta work on my self dout any ideas on how to do that??

I am currently in a relationship of 5 months. Although I know that my GF will never cheat on me, I still get paranoid about it. I can’t help it. Something happens which starts my delusional thoughts of everything that could go wrong. Although I have told her about these bad thoughts, I still lay in bed at night next to her and think about situations and reasons why I think she cheated. It is stressing me out, but not her because she is stronger than me and says that she is going to help me through this. I want to blame my ex, but was it really my ex that did this to me or was it me? I guess I just have a problem with someone genuinly wanting to be with me, someone who doesn’t cheat. The funny thing is that I can stress myself out so much over all these terrible thoughts, but as soon as she talks to me about it, it all goes away because I truely believe her. But then why can’t I stop stressing myself out? I just want this to go away, all suspisions gone!!! I want to go back to how I was last week. Maybe I wil after I talk to the guy in question?? Maybe I won’t. The wierdest things is that say her and this guy did kiss, which is my suspision, I would not break up with her because I love her and I know she would never mean to hurt me. I would want to work through it, I think it would make us stronger. I just want to know the truth, but it seems that even though I might already know the truth, it still haunts my mind. So that leaves me at square one, what should I do?

I want to stop thinking something is going to happen to my children all the time. I want to stop imagining what I would do if they were to die. I also want to stop thinking my friends don’t really like me, but just tolerate me.

seems to be happening naturally I think!...

They say ‘worrying is like praying for trouble’, so I HAVE to get out of this silly mindset.

im paranoid all the time which is ruining my love life

i hate it.. i think i got a bit of paranoia cuz i mainly have ocd but after a few years of having ocd ive started getting symptoms of paranoia.. mostly recently ive realised i cant trust the people i love the most and its ruining my relationships with them cuz they think i dont trust them but i really do but i get paranoid about things and only recently have i told my closest friends how i really feel about things and i sound like a crazy person so im trying to change it i just hope i dont lose the people i love most during this process..

i was reflecting on 2008 the other day. i believe that i have made immense progress on this goal. i think about myself at the beginning of the year, constantly questioning whether people REALLY wanted to be my friend, or REALLY wanted to talk to me, or silly things like that.

however now, i don’t second guess when people don’t text me back, or call me when they say they will. sometimes other things come up, and that doesn’t mean that i’m not important to the person. it’s taken me a long time to grasp this, but i think that it’s gotten significantly better. especially since going to college, and meeting a lot of new people. i’ve come to realize that time can pass without you talking to people, and that doesn’t mean that you don’t care…it means that you lost track of time, and you should reevaluate it.

i don’t constantly think people hate me when i meet them, and i don’t think that people pretend to like me to be nice to me. i just try to be nice, and if i’m friends with someone, they will stay. i feel that me being less paranoid has helped my stress levels significantly as well.
