Nazis or something are watching me. I am really getting weirded out. The people I work with at multiple jobs seem to know personal things about that no one should ever know. Like whether I sleep naked or not. Maybe I am going crazy. I just get so tired... I get panic attacks because it seems like there are people out to get me. I need some help. Does anyone else think like this? It seems like I am constantly getting punished. My bosses quote from books I read... They seem like they're trying to drive me crazy on purpose. I am so sick to my stomach. I am alienated from my friends and my family. They all either think I am crazy or are scared. My uncle( a man who used to be a teacher and in the military) shot someone watching us while I was there. I am scared to go to a counselor. If I was put into a mental institution, I would never be able to make my way economically when I got out. My parents are that poor. Can they do that without your consent? The thing is I know people are watching me... I just need help to cope with that. This is really scary. I don't know what to do... Can some people answer me. What is going on? I think they might be trying to kill me? I don't know what they want from me... Answers please!!!! What is going on in this country??? Help:confused: They should put a tear emoticon on this site.

Paranoia and hyper vigilance can be symptoms of a wide variety of mental disorders. If I were you I would go in to see a counselor to try to figure out what the problem is and what you can do to overcome it. Normally to admit someone to a psych ward the person has to be seen as a threat to themselves or society in general. To me what you are describing can probably be slowed down a whole heck of a lot with the right medication such as an anti anxiety med or maybe even an anti psychotic (I am not a doctor but just speaking from experience). The big thing here is the longer you wait the chances are it is going to get worse. Don't worry about appearing crazy in front of a counselor as they see symptoms from all varieties so it is pretty hard to catch them off guard. Anyway you do not have to live like this so maybe it is time to take that step which will eventually lead to recovery.

take care

Go to the hospital emergency room and tell them you need to see a psychiatrist or the hospital social worker and then tell them what you have said here. They can put you in touch with the mental health people that will treat you regardless of your ability to pay or not. You need medication but first you need an evaluation. Good luck. Your thinking is not real and you need to talk to someone to get a reality check and some medicine so your thinking will clear up.

Yeah Medication Do I drink that with water? This is very real. But thanks for letting me know that they can not lock me up. My friends agree with me. I lived with a girl who witnessed it first hand.That's the problem. No one believes me. Which is just going to drive me more insane... There are Nazis here. Or something. I just wanted to make sure they couldn't put me away. They are watching me.

I get paranoid delusions, very similar to yours. You won't be institutionalized. I would say to first visit a psychiatrist, and him or her everything. If you hold back, it will take so much longer to feel secure...I learned that one the hard way. It's good that you understand that this fear isn't rational, that will help you ignore the people who watch you.

For the people who watch me, if they are there, I ask myself, "why are they so interested in me?" Sometimes, that brings me comfort.

They dont put people in institutions any more, they treat people at home

I had paranoid delusions like the ones you are describing, my wife rang the hospital and they sent out a team that came to my home..
