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. |

No disrespect, but it looks like you cut and paste the results of a mental wellness quiz when your final score is in the 24-39 category.
In response to your topic question, I've really noticed in the past 10 months that I'm affected by episodes of depression. It can change like the weather, though. Sometimes I'm fine for weeks, and then I'll have a stretch of days where I don't see the point of living and can't find happiness in anything around me. I'm on meds, but I think it's just masking the problem (like a painkiller) instead of fixing it. |

@OHP - I don't mean this flippantly, but you sound as though you're just a normal bloke. Virtually everyone has those feelings at some point or another (especially men!)
It's only a disorder when it actually stops you functioning in the way you need to function. Calling in sick at work to spy on your wife for example. Don't beat yourself up, the fact you can even articulate what you're feeling, even on a forum, demonstrates you're more tuned in that many other people. Having said all that, I do think you're a nutter for other reasons. |

If you do have a mental disorder, and you see a doctor, and he makes a referral. It is likely that you will see a psychiatrist who will prescribe you medication.
The medication will calm you down, and stop your delusions/ paranoia. It could help you, it could make you feel sedated. They could make you overweight. I think, as in concerns over your health, you could pursue a path of well-being. Eat well, exercise well, reduce stress. Perhaps you need to take more time away from computers and mix with real people. |

I can imagine you being a bit paranoid. I know things in the past have made you like this to an extent.
Are you suspicious of people acting in a certain way because you might act like that yourself? If people appear like that on this forum, I wouldn't suggest they are like that really. I mean, you don't come across ike that. Like you have a screw loose maybe, but nothing more. |

I was diagnosed with douchewaffle syndrome.
I have ADHD, some sort of avoidance personality disorder, and some other things I didn't really pay attention to before I stopped seeing a therapist. I realized the best cure for getting over a divorce was to not go see a bitchy woman who is going to tell me I have issues. If I wanted that I'd have gone and got married again. |
