Do I need help?

I don’t know I hear things and I think I see things that arent really there and I scare myself so much that like I don’t know

I just looked it up and it’s a thought process characterized by excessive anxiety or fear, often to the point of irrationality and delusion. more on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paranoia if you havent already looked. I’m pretty sure though.

thinking you hear and see things can occur from anxiety attacks like if you start having paranoid thoughts and you get really worked up over something you can start to cause yourself to have physical side effects such as shortness of breath, light headedness, feeling very over heated, it can cause your stomach to hurt, can cause you to feel nauseated, chest pains, there are tons of side effects from becoming over anxious or having a side effect.. like I said before try to do something to get your mind off of it and see if the things you think your seeing and hearing go away.. theres a good chance they will.

everyone deals with paranoia over the smallest things, its isnt a mental illness. Paranoia is a symptom of schizophrenia but, theres so many levels of it that you shouldnt have to worry. when you’re paranoid you’re mainly being controlled by your fear, making you think something is there when it isnt, based of fear.

I know someone whos so afraid of roaches that when she would see one, she kept imagining them everywhere and was too scared to walk around my apartment! she kept smackin her leg and body because she thought a roach was crawling on her.

So I doubt you have schizophrenia. but with being paranoid, just lose your fear. control yourself and try to realize its all in your head.
