Join the roomNa psiquiatria, paranoia é uma percepção errônea na qual uma pessoa pensa que outras estão planejando prejudicá-la. Uma pessoa paranoica pode acreditar que as pessoas estão preocupadas com tudo o que ela está fazendo. Essas crenças também podem ser crenças persecutórias, ou crenças de conspiração relacionadas a uma ameaça percebida contra si mesma. Paranoia é um instinto ou processo de pensamento que se acredita ser fortemente influenciado por ansiedade, suspeita ou medo, frequentemente até o ponto de delírio e irracionalidade. Paranoia é distinta de fobias, que também envolvem medo irracional, mas geralmente sem culpa.
“Paranoia is infectious. It’s also an incredibly useful tool. If you can make people afraid enough, uncertain enough, they will simply stop moving.”
“A paranoid man is a man who knows a little about what's going on.”
“In a world full of threat, it may be kind of beneficial for people to be on guard. It's good to be looking around and see who's following you and what's happening. Not everybody is trying to get you, but some people may be.”
“Paranoia all too often leads to isolation, unhappiness, and profound distress. But the exceptionally positive immediate results for the patients in this study show a new route forward in treatment. In just a thirty minute session, those who used the right psychological techniques showed major reductions in paranoia.”
“It's not paranoia if they're really after you.”
“Then I could turn around and justify that, by saying that it isn’t really paranoia if there really are people out to get you.”
