[@warrenhebert1926]

Please consider adding educational content for the spouse or family members of the person with PPD. Thanks for this enlightening discussion.

[@anonimuse6553]

Anonimuse The first thing to realize is that this disorder stems from thought patterns. Once you realize you are having one of these thought patterns you can learn to be able to shorten the duration's and be less controlled by them. Remember - You are loved and lovable. It's important to remember that and that imperfection is OK. Both in you and other people.

[@mariewilliams194]

This has made me finally know why i have always mistrusted people. And have a inferiority complex. I used to think that everyone was self focused and were not nice and lacked respect. I know now that people are too focused on themselves. If people show disrespect they lack respect. Not everyone cares about other people's feelings. If we can find a few respectful people we are lucky.

[@blakefair5474]

I'm grateful that you actually have something covering the treatment. If you or anyone else has resources for someone with it who can't afford therapy but would like to help themselves, please share. This has ruined my life and I really want a chance at a fairly normal one.

Some survivors of WAR have PPD. They seem to have trouble overcoming fears. Emotions passed onto their children.

[@taylortimeless]

Mine has gotten so overwhelming to the point where “you know what” has crossed my mind. It’s become unbearable. I feel safest when I isolate. Not too long ago it became so strong that I had to leave the room and go somewhere private. I hardly cry ever, but I broke down sobbing and kept thinking about how I just wanted to die so it could stop. I came out too my family. My parents were not supportive about it and still aren’t after all of these years. My family will say homophobic things around me knowing I’m in the room, not giving a single shit. I try to stay strong and ignore it but idk lately I just haven’t been able to handle it. I feel like I’ve gotten weaker. Idk how much more of the whispering, snickering, and pointing that I can take. Sometimes I drink to help me relax more. I hate how this post sounds. I’m not usually so sensitive like this. I’ve really been trying to go back to my more so nonchalant self but it’s been getting harder and harder to hide it lately. Idk what’s happening. I’m so tired of going away and sobbing alone in dark rooms at family gatherings.

I is think you need to get away from your homophobic family, maybe your paranoia is justified, it doesn’t seem like you live in an emotionally safe environment

[@bissboos3669]

Paranoid Personality Disorder is NOT laying anywhere on the schizophrenia spectrum. It’s part of the Cluster A Personality Disorders characterized by odd thinking. You are confusing PPD with paranoid delusions but the two are very different. I think to say ppd is on the schizophrenia spectrum is giving misinformation to the public, especially with a topic as sensitive as schizophrenia with very critical ramifications. So please read and educate yourself more. Sincerely, A mental health professional.

I have a friend who has become so toxic. Just I think she has BPD and Paranoia disorder based on the symptoms that I have watched in several videos. She always thinks we are talking behind her and up to doing things that will be on her disadvantage. I did try to understand her for several years and tried to make her feel that I am someone she can trust. She always fights with others over small things because she thinks it was intentional to make her feel or look bad. Now, she always starts tension between the two of us and leaves me wondering what I have done wrong. But several concerned friends have told me that my friend always thinks I betray her and that I influence others to be against her... And that I did this or that to her. I am like 'Huh? When did I do that?" "What made her think that is my intention?" Now we dont talk to each other coz she's getting worse. She has become so toxic to me that I have to be distant to her before my sanity will be affected. But the prob is she never accepts her mistakes or that she has problem dealing with people around her. She always thinks she does not have a problem at all. It's the people around her who have problems. I think she needs professional help.

My wife has it so bad, she cannot accept that she has a problem. It’s everyone else. She claims I do everything she does. She outright lies to my face. She is a vicious,angry, and contentious person. She always thinks I’m trying to poison her, and plot against her. She must have total control over everyone close to her (family). This, I believe, makes her feel she has control over those she believes are plotting against her and thus, she can control them from executing their “plots”. She is really rough on our son. My wife assumes everything is everyone else’s fault, regardless of proof or evidence. It is a nightmare. Even though she was in the psychiatric hospital and diagnosed with it, she denies it.

[@zildjiangirl-bu7kq]

My friend is exactly like her. She makes stories that she believes I actually did. She overthinks a lot and make stories and lies in her mind and tells other people they are true. She has accused me of several things that she actually is the one guilty of doing. She cannot accept she has problem. It's the people around her. She always has fights because she thinks people around her are trying to disavantage or harm her.

[@unsearchablethings8167]

@@zildjiangirl-bu7kq It took me quite a while to figure out what was going on exactly. I had never been close to anyone who had a problem like that. It was really startling. One could not imagine it without living with someone that had it, or as in your case a friend. Once they are close enough to a person they will “let it rip”.

[@zildjiangirl-bu7kq]

@@unsearchablethings8167 I thought before it was I who had a problem. We were together 5-6 days/a week not less than 8 hours a day for several years. I have felt that what she does already affects me emotionally, mentally, pschologically that I had to be distant to her. When I did, she became even worse. She thought I was ruining her reputation when I was doing nothing and so she wants to get ahead of me by telling people we work with about me, assassinating my character. But fortunately, people around us noticed the problem in her character. Now I can say that I have actually encountered someone who manifests symptoms of bipolar disorder and ppd. I am praying that your wife can get professional help as soon as possible so everything will be ok soon.

[@zoeison235]

I'm so sorry to hear of your experience. I've posted replies on other feeds. My husband has been ill with PPD for eight years and it has been nothing short of hell. As I've said in the past you can't reason, you have to let them wear themselves out. I find the calmer you stay the better for you. I still don't get it right and will lose my temper from constant accusations and insults but remember they are ill. They don't see the world correctly. Being firm but kind is the best way. Or if things become too much remove yourself from the argument. Go out for a couple of hours. Always have an exit plan incase of aggressive behaviour. Im still trying, some days are harder than others. My heart goes out to anyone with the disorder or anyone dealing with it. Put your safety first, if you feel threatened remove yourself.

[@turnovertheleaf5505]

You must be the safest place on earth for her. It's the only way. Let her ask questions ( based or not), and let her explore ideas honestly with you (fantasy or not). Right now, you are responding in a way that confirms her ideas, which only solidifies her terror. She doesn't trust you enough to be vulnerable, basically. Realize that the same hostility and judgment you are giving her caused her brain to think this way as a child. Empathy , tons of empathy!

[@saltyarmyberzerker]

My wife has been diagnosed with general anxiety disorder and has been taking xanax for many years as a result. She's been misdiagnosed, this is what her problem is. Can't tell her that though because she already thinks I'm the enemy and a liar and cheater and out to get her, so telling her this would just be more confirmation to her how bad I am. This disorder ruined my life.

I have a work collegue who keeps looking at me all the time, he seems too be convinced that im staring at him, no matter where i look he starts staring at me. I have had to put up with this for over a year now. Im just trying to do my job and he is making my work enviroment hell. I do my best to ignore his behaviour, i tried staring at him back hoping he would get the hint too stop staring. He will stand up and then instantly stare at me or keep looking over his should at me, or looking at me out the corner of his eye, and if i look at him he then looks away. It's very bizarre behaviour too me. He also seems suspicious of me. One day at work he asked me a question and i responded by saying " Im not sure you'll need to ask the manager" and he turned on me and raised his voice at me and said" The reason im telling you this is because that is what i have done before" I responded by saying "Have you? I don't know that's why i said speak to the manager" He seemed to be insulted even though i was calm and polite too him, and then he gave me the silence treatment and just keep staring at me, he has reported me to the manager because i said too him " Im not banned from looking around" I can't look anywhere without being convinced im staring at him. Would this full into the category of paranoid personality disorder do you think? I mean he's obviously paranoid? I just read below in the comments that people that have seen conflict can have ppd. This guy is from Nigeria and he once told me he has seen many people murdered by Boko Haram. Interesting.
