Is this normal or do i have paranoia?

Keep in mind what I'm telling you is a small portion of my typical day. I'm always told by people that no one is judging me (whether that be at soccer training or in the classroom). Yet I keep thinking they're are judging me, I try to reason with myself though no matter how reasonable the reason, I always go back to, "They're always watching me, they think I'm weak and therefore I'm worthless in their eyes."

I think that everyone pities me, the only reason they don't bully me is because I come across as eccentric. I feel the only reason that people listen to me is because they can't really leave (because they're in school or they're family). A harmless comment, an insignificant action; these things come across as hostile to me.

I write this because the other day I was walking towards a sliding door, a family approaching the same door from the other side. I couldn't help but think that the door opened just a little too early for them. That very moment, for but a few seconds, I actually believed the door opened earlier for them because the door thought, they were better than me.
P.S I don't take any illicit or licit drugs.

    your not paranoid in the general meaning of the word. It really just sounds like you have little confidence and self esteem. you project feelings about yourself on to other people. you think they are judging you bc you are judging you. b/c you think your weak. bc you think your worthless.

  • It is paranoia. People listen to you just like you listen to them, friends and family are the people that want to listen to you. You sound like you are doing ok despite these paranoid delusions, so just know that everything is fine. There would be glaring signs if it wasn't.

    You need to talk to a councillor about this
