Help? am I paranoid?!
Question:
Help? am I paranoid?
Alright, so I am prettymuch afraid to be in my house at night. I see hallucinations and I hear things. For example, just now I was downstairs and I thought I saw the doorknob twisting on the outside door like someone was trying to get in. And I thought I saw someone hiding behind my sisters bedroom door. I am afraid to go near windows at night. One time, when I got out of the shower, I didnt come out of the bathroom for twenty minutes or so until my brother came upstairs so I felt safe.
This has been going on for quite some time, and Im scaring myself to death from hallucinating etc.
Its not even when im by myself, im fourteen and have parents and siblings that are around, and im still so afraid. Also, its not like Im afraid of someone coming in, i live in a very ssafe/nice neighborhood.
This really needs to stop, its really making me very uncomfortable, annoyed, and just scared.
what should I do?
Answers:
If this is just a night time problem then what you could do is go to your room and ignore these distractions. Put this stuff out of your head and don't think about it, and keep your eyes closed so your mind does not wander to deep. Grab some headphones or listen to a radio with the sound at a level where you can fall asleep. A night light may help also.
