Is Paranoia real, bad, or what?

[Mortblanc]

The exact definition of Paranoia also includes the delusional element, meaning one can see the problem in others but if it involves prepping that is a totally different matter, since prepping deals with "real threats".

All three words are included in the definition, unreasonable, irrational and delusional fear.

That means that the suspected paranoid individual does not get to set the "norm".

That must be done my someone that is recognized as NOT being paranoid.

Paranoia WAS the Greek word for "madness" and the root of all madness.
