i know im paranoid...so everytime i think "are they talking about me?" i think "fark no, you're no THAT important" :P


I am 15 years old, OK! I have NEVER EVER once in whole entire life, seen someone stare at me.

I think I have this instead of paranoia: http://listphobias.com/Ophthalmophobia

Paranoid Personality Disorder doesn't fit me very well at all. I feel I am the least important person in this whole at times.

:? what does your age have to do with it?

anyhoo, i just have a severe dislike of people staring or looking at me, it makes me uncomfortable and paranoid (why are they looking at me?)

right now, i'm trying superhard not to think about the job interview i have this arvo, which will be a panel interview so i will be sitting across from about 4 people with them all looking at, talking to and judging me

It is very annoying. When they ask me if I am ok, I should just say no and then run off a list of bad things that happened to me. That would shut them up.

Teens can be very sensitive and are often worried about what people think of them.
