Severe paranoia.

Hello everyone!

I am 27 years old and have previously never suffered from a mental illness. In the last 18months my mental health has deteriorated rapidly with a diagnosis of Anxiety andOCD. A few months ago I was involuntarily admitted to a hospital with severe clinical depression- I was unable to talk or attend to any activities of daily living I was there for 6 weeks and changed medications.

In the past week or two /i have begun feeling extremely paranoid about every aspect of my life and this world and have also been getting intrusive negative thoughts that feed into the paranoia. I am wondering if this is a normal aspect of depression that will come and go at times of increased stress or is this turning into something more?

I am asking on here first as I want to wait as long as possible before telling my mental health team as I am afraid they will section me again ( Or is that paranoia??)

G'Day Skaters,

Sorry you're having a crap time.

You mentioned you changed meds 6 weeks ago and now your symptoms have changed. Please contact your Dr and let them know what you are feeling. I can't come to any conclusions about being hospitalised, except that it's pretty important you let your Dr know of these new feelings.

Would you have a chat with your Dr and come back and let me know how you go?

Paul
