    I suffered with anxiety/panic attacks when i was 15 -17, suffered with depression on and off to a certain degree since then so that's 9 years and for the last 2 - 3 years i don't trust anyone, think that everyone is talking about me which causes anger and arguments and have lead to fights on a few occasions. I even think that if someone is making a meal for me they are going to poison me with something. If anything when im on cycle these symptoms seem to lessen to a degree

    DSM VI 301.0 -

    Diagnostic criteria for 301.0 Paranoid Personality Disorder
    DSM IV - TR

    (cautionary statement)

    A. A pervasive distrust and suspiciousness of others such that their motives are interpreted as malevolent, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by four (or more) of the following:

    (1) suspects, without sufficient basis, that others are exploiting, harming, or deceiving him or her
    (2) is preoccupied with unjustified doubts about the loyalty or trustworthiness of friends or associates
    (3) is reluctant to confide in others because of unwarranted fear that the information will be used maliciously against him or her
    (4) reads hidden demeaning or threatening meanings into benign remarks or events
    (5) persistently bears grudges, i.e., is unforgiving of insults, injuries, or slights
    (6) perceives attacks on his or her character or reputation that are not apparent to others and is quick to react angrily or to counterattack
    (7) has recurrent suspicions, without justification, regarding fidelity of spouse or sexual partner

    B. Does not occur exclusively during the course of Schizophrenia, a Mood Disorder With Psychotic Features, or another Psychotic Disorder and is not due to the direct physiological effects of a general medical condition.

    Note: If criteria are met prior to the onset of Schizophrenia, add "Premorbid," e.g., "Paranoid Personality Disorder (Premorbid)."

    Have you ever checked under your car and land lines for bugging and tracking devices?
