how to 'dismiss' and not worry about this reoccurring idea that i get
this is just something i've suspected for a long time, a reoccurring idea about women, but maybe it's just paranoia - i don't know.
i've had this worrying idea for years that certain people or someone is portraying me falsely to women and now a lot of women have accepted this false portrayal of me and think it's 'true', and now have lost interest in interacting with me, because they perceive me in ' negative' ways because of the portrayal, women have been influenced not to interact with me in other words, and now they don't want to interact with me because of what they've been told about me???
i have no proof of this idea, never have done, i have been told by my elderly mother and others that this idea is just 'paranoia', none of it is true or real, just a bit delusional....and being told that helps a lot and the idea goes away, but then it comes back at times.
but when i get this reoccurring idea, it makes me feel really outraged and angry, but i also worry too.
so what do you think? is it paranoia and how can i dismiss this thought and not worry about it??
