Does anyone else with generalized anxiety and or OCD get paranoiad? I've read where people talk about they feel that way if they don't for example check the stove or if they don't do this this will happen and I get that but lately I get paranoid like something is behind me I fear I'll be taken away wether is like a spirit or just a feeling I use to get it only at night and I know it's worse after too much sugar or carbs. My whole life before my anxiety I had a deep wonder into science, space, aliens, ghost, astrology and general fringe topics now I find myself paranoid about those things
I just need to know someone else feels paranoid at times
Am I schizophrenic? I don't think I hear voices or hallucinate but I fear those things and maybe that can trigger the feeling of it
How does one know if he is schizophrenic? Is this just a new facet of my OCD which seems to focus on existential questions and sexuality is this just a new phase which is preying off my fear I hate it when
My muscles feel weak and numb sometimes I wonder if it's the anxiety and fear, when ever I feel it I fear I'll be paralyzed or "be taken away"
After a bout with HOCD which has lasted almost a month it seems when I get a handle on one obsession a new one or another one comes out
Does Depersonlization cause paranoia
Oi..
Há motivo para ser paranoico, nossa mente não consegue explicar esses fenômenos, se você estiver interessado nisso, pode ser que esteja pedindo para você prestar atenção novamente. Claro, mais sentimento e menos racionalização. Eu sei que é difícil quando vivemos em um mundo racional e estruturado, mas.. sim.
Se você é esquizofrênico, o que é um diagnóstico feito por profissionais, mentes racionais limitadas, pois a própria mente é limitada, impotente, entra em pânico, rotula, entra em pânico, estrita e cruel 
então você é, sem problemas, mas você não é. Mesmo que você seja, em algumas "culturas" é considerado um dom, então...
Boa sorte
Só relaxe e observe seu corpo, tente ficar bem com isso
e coisas assim
boa sorte
Hi, I have paranoid schizophrenia. This doesnt sound like schizophrenia to me, you need more than just paranoia to be diagnosed with this. By that I mean you would also hear voices and/or have delusions and hallucinations. Also generally speaking, you would not be aware of your beliefs (the voices, paranoia, delusions and halluciantions) not being real or rational. So dont worry about schizophrenia.
I also have severe OCD and GAD. OCD and GAD are basically paranoia, it causes you to worry about the 'what ifs' and has you on edge, espeically in terms of your OCD fears and general interests. This sounds lke what you have, and fits with you already having OCD and GAD.
I am not medical though. I would speak to a psychiatrist for a formal correct assessment and diagnosis, and tell them about your fears.
Good luck
Thank you I've been worried about this for so long like I know nothing is really after me or that I'm paranoid about things I think it's when you've been dealing with anxiety for so long you wonder if your cursed or the "government is after you" all the things you never believed before you wonder cause anxiety when you deal with it for so long makes you start to consider for the most part irrational things three months ago I wouldn't had this worry but now it's like so many things seem probable because you think "what changed me" you know?
Like right now I'm dealing with HOCD and never have I worried about my orientation but now I am suddenly after being triggered one day by a movie now I'm going through memories looonh for evidence and now im wondering if I'm bisexual when before I was so secure in my sexuality
I doubt my religion it's like it strips so much from you
Have your gone through similar where OCD or GAD have made you doubt yourself so much you can't trust what anything? Especially after so long with it cause that's where I am right now after three and a half months with it
It went from
Week 1
First panic attack (feels like a heart attack thought I wa shaving one and nearly blacked out in car)
Started Seeing therapist (that still helps me now)
Health anxiety
Separation anxiety (you know fear of being alone what if I have another one)
Second month
Suffered from Depersonalization (thought I had lost it that I was going insane) I remember calling help lines and all the existential questions almost like the mind days I can't deal with this. This became my first real obsession in terms of my OCD during this time
Month three
HOCD
Fears of schizophrenia
Paranoia
Tried Lexapro made me feel uncomfortable
I know this is long but I just really needed to talk to someone
Comunique-se com você mesmo, apenas fique quieto, tente decifrar todas essas partes versáteis de você, como quem está com medo do passado, por exemplo, quem tem medo de ser rejeitado, por que ser rejeitado está tão errado ou assustador, quem tem medo de ficar sozinho, o que aconteceria se fosse deixado, ficar sozinho... toda dúvida que você tem, medo de algo, pergunte de onde vem, desde quando você sente isso, quem sente isso etc etc
isto é apenas uma técnica
mas a comunicação com você mesmo é essencial
apenas seja paciente e calmo e as respostas virão
provavelmente :p
amor

Thank you so much I had this epiphany today where I realized nothing changed but our awareness of our fears
exatamente. e os medos não passam de (suprimidas) necessidades.. necessidade de amor, aprovação, cuidado, por conhecimento, por mudança...
te amo,
