FR, after read thru lol, to all you funny people . . . . . A sense of humor is an excellent antidote to worry & other shades of fear . . . .. The difference I see with paranoia versus other degrees of the 'skeereds' is narcissism . . . . In my experience those who were suffering from what I thought of as a problematic level of paranoia (not justified by rational, exterior circumstances, not excessive caution) was that they felt that they, personally, were the focus of other people's energies in a way that seemed remarkably ego-centric . . . . . That thought was what was going thru my mind as I read this thread, that & the Hitchhiker's quote about paranoia: "You know," said Arthur thoughtfully, "all this explains a lot of things. All through my life I've had this strange unaccountable feeling that something was going on in the world, something big, even sinister, and no one would tell me what it was." "No," said the old man, "that's just perfectly normal paranoia. Everyone in the Universe has that."
