Like any other human being I have made my fair share of mistakes in the past. Sometimes I think they are stuck to me such as a label or criminal record but I'm not a criminal.
I'm afraid of what others will think about me if they found out what I did in the past and sometimes I think they have learned about it because they will abrubtly stop communicating with me for no reason. I think my dad is associated with some of these people so he might be telling them. Am I paranoid or is it anxiety?

Hi i had the same problem. Thought i commited a terrible crime and i felt that i had a criminal record.I felt like people were after me. I felt that people were trying to read my record. I felt i as if i deserved to die.I pretty much felt and had these thoughts that you described. I was diagonsed with anxiety disorder before. My parents toke me to see my psycharist, and after several diagonses it was a depression with psychotic features/ psychosis /psychotic depression (they all pretty much mean the same thing.) My therapist told me that it is very similar to paranoia. It could be a severe form of depression, it could be anxiety or paraonia. It may depend on how long you had these thoughts for. I'm not a expert or anything. It could be lots of stuff. My advice is to tell your doctor to see what he/she thinks. I hope that everything works out alright.

Thanks Emmie! I didn't explain my situation and feelings very well but you caught the idea for the most part. I appreciate your comments. I just need to work on dealing with my past and I think that would help a lot. I thought I had come to terms with it but I think I still have some issues. Thanks again
