Hi, you are very welcome, please let me know if you need any further help??

As always you should trust in the opinion of a healthcare professional. The Internet can often be a source of misinformation. Us BI people are different, our Paranoia is not often a mental disorder, it's more related to the injuries and circumstances and needs a tailored specific coping mechanism. For instance mine is a delaying tactic. If I feel this way I just say to myself right I'll deal with this at six o clock tonight where I will sit down and go through the why nots and whereabouts of what's happening. So I pack it away till then and stop worrying. By six o clock I've forgotten all about it and moved on. Works for me, but it took professional paid assistance from a brilliant neuropsychologist to come up with this. For you it will probably be something different

Thanks knifemaster,

Im with you on this about the paranoia being a result of an injury. Im sorry steve the paranoia on that website was more a general paranoia. I do not suffer the majority of the symptoms. I will try your tatic knifemaster and see how it goes and its good to also know that there are other sufferes too.
