if you think people are laughing at you or trying to get a rise out of you, how should you deal with it
i have a personality disorder and with that i have paranoia, severe anxiety and trouble controlling anger...i often 'personalize' what people do and take it personal.
earlier when i had to go grocery shopping, i took some things personal...i was waiting to cross the road, and a car sped past me with a loud engine and it unnerved & panicked me and made me very annoyed....as i thought whoever was in the car did that personally at me.
then when i got to the checkout at the supermarket, some man and woman were laughing together in front of me, the woman glanced at me and laughed with the man who was with her, they said the words 'already' a few times whilst they were laughing.
and once again i took that personally and i felt like ramming that womans head into the wall or the ground, i was so angry, but i kept control and tried to remain patient.
its very difficult when you have paranoia and severe anxiety and a personality disorder.
any help with this would be appreciated.
