Paranoia

I scored a 40. I already knew I was paranoid. I have had some traumatic events in my life the last two years. I was in a car accident almost two years ago where I developed seizures and had to quit working. I was sexually assaulted 6 months ago, and then when I did go back to work, I was stabbed in the parking lot. I thought it was random, but then he came back and he was there again. I am constantly looking in my mirror to see if someone is following me. PTSD does not usually does manifest for about 6 weeks, but considering all that I have been through in the last few years, Sierra Tucson said they are not surprised that I am paranoid, anxious, and an insomniac because I am having paralyzing nightmares. Is this a place that can help me? The cost is very high and I do not want to go if they can't. Anyone got any experience? I would appreciate any feedback that I can get. Thanks.Rachel

but i think

i think this quiz is right i can think that iam paranoid

am i considered to be paranoid?

my score is 38 , am i considered to be paranoid?

well

i was suspicious of the quiz that if i put 5's then it would be too perfect paranoid

Score 32

I'm not paranoid. People are this way to me. But it doesn't mean aI should care. The world was created with a Cain. Don't mean you have to be completely void of them. Look what happened to Able when he didn't suspect it. He really should have been paranoid!!

result

I sccored a 44

Paranoia

If this test were given to people in supervisory positions, I'll bet their scores would be much higher than those of the general population. Also, I think those in a supervisory position who tend to micro manage those under them are more paranoid, as a group, than managers who do not micro manage.

skittish

I am very paranoid, but it is always important to get a second oppion one test does not mean very much. I also suffer from depression, isolation and smoked a bunch of weed. Its all a process, take a test one day bad results but take the test another day and it might change.

Results

I scored a 38, but I only came looking for a quiz because I was worried I was a paranoid anyway. There's so much wrong with my mind. :(
