you know what I think I may be suffering from Paranoid personality disorder. I've come to this conclusion because I've realised I actually exhibit many of the symptoms. I have an unrelenting mistrust and suspicion of others,even when there is little or no reason to be suspicious. I constantly feel others are constantly trying to demean, talking about me and I'm constantly on guard. I'm hyper sensitive to hearing things that may or may not be aimed at me I doubt the trustworthiness of others,am reluctant to confide in others, I sometimes read hidden meanings in innocent remarks. I perceive attacks on my character,that are not apparent from others views. I can be hostile,stubborn and sometimes argumentative. I sometime blame others I have once doubted my wife's commitment... this is what has made me realise I have a problem because I know my wife loves me and she's 100% genuine. I want to stop this before it becomes a vicious circle and I end up losing everything. I think I was damaged a long time ago by others also being in the military hasn't helped because there is a lot of bitching and back stabbing going on which has made me worse and I need help. I also think there may be others here who exhibit these symptoms too.
