I'm always afraid people are watching me?

Yeah. It's not recent either. I think there are cameras everywhere, and that there are people watching me. I don't even know why they would be watching me. I used to invent stories though. Like I was some cyborg or something and they wanted to keep tabs. I'd even try and find evidence.

Mind you I don't think it's serious enough to go to a therapist. I've kinda toned it down. But now I just have visions every time I close my eyes that there's some wide-eyed asshole weird ghost thing staring at me. It pisses me off.

On top of that I'm constantly paranoid everyone hates me or doesn't trust me. I never ask and I never give them any reason to, and they all seem to like me well enough. But I can't shake the feeling, EVER.

Does anyone else get like this? Is it normal?

    It sounds like you have schizophrenia. Look up the symptoms and if you have them, go to a doctor. This is VERY serious.

    I used to feel that way quite a lot. I smoked far too much weed through age 16-18 which I think has fucked up some neurological pathways, but I hold hope that they will rebuild and normalcy will completley return in time as I have quit weed for a year.
    The lowest point was when I thought people talked in this metaphor language - like everything people said actually was symbolic for how they really felt. Like a hidden meaning or innuendo of sorts.
    So yeah - stop smokig weed! And if you don't - see a psychiatrist because thinking that way is a waste of time and life becomes more complicated than necessary.
    Not normal.

      I have felt like that sometimes. The best thing to do is try to ignore it. If people are watching you, then usually it is because they are trying to get something on you, to use against you, or to find some type of weekness that they can prey on, make worse, and exploite. My advise is keep your nose clean. Don't give anyone anything to use against you. If you have done something that you are not proud of talk with a family member, or trusted pastor, or a friend of 3 or more years, to try to get through any problems you have. You can see a pysciatrist, but there's a 50/50 chance that you'll get a good or bad one. If you get a bad one they can really screw you up. If you think someone's trying to dig up dirst on you, they may go through your psyciatrists notes at the end of the day when no one is there, so make sure to be vague, or talk about similar issues that you can get a benefit from, rather than talking about the specific issue. It never hurst to be careful, just try not to come across as too crazy. A little crazy is okay, but too much tends to scare people. Would advise not posting any more on here just in case - FYI.

    You may want to seek some professional advice if it prevents you from leading a healthy and comfortable life.
