The World's a Risky Place

The world can be a risky place. When you feel like people are constantly out to trick or harm you. Paranoia is the irrational and persistent feeling that people are ‘out to get you’ or that you are the subject of persistent, intrusive attention by others. This unfounded mistrust of others can make it difficult for a person to function socially or have close relationships. While there is no absolute cure for the conditions that cause paranoia, treatment can help the person cope with their symptoms and live a happier, more productive life.
