Odd paranoia

EVA116 · April 2014

What are some ridiculous things you get paranoid about?

not kid related.

Everytime I meet someone that smokes weed and they offer me gum, I always think the gum is laced with weed.

When my H orders in a drive thru, I am pretty sure that our food has been spit in.

I think people wipe dollar bills on their butts.

I'm sensing a theme Eva116 LOL.

I have a fear that when we have lighting storms we're going to get hit.

I also have a fear that we get strong winds that it's going to blow out the gas and we won't know. Which is COMPLETELY dumb because there's no way that could happen.

Edit - I also have a fear that we'll have a fire and I either won't hear the alarms or they won't work for some reason.

I am paranoid that during a lightening storm I will somehow get electrocuted if I am on the phone or computer.

I am also paranoid that I won't be able to switch lanes in enough time, so I will stay in the left lane if I need to make a left hand turn for miles.

I'm convinced there is a scary monster hanging out in my basement so after I turn the lights off I run like hell to the top of the stairs to safety.

EVA116 · April 2014

Also if I leave a light on for too long it will cause a fire.

Also while I'm pooping I think something is going to jump out of the toilet and grab my ass mid-poop.

I'm paranoid about people breaking into our house (not that there is anything worth stealing besides our tv and my underwear).

I get paranoid that there is some sort of critter hanging out in the toilet and it is going to bite my ass when I sit down.

I would also NEVER swim naked in anything other than a pool because I am paranoid that some sort of critter will swim into my lady bits.

EVA116 · April 2014

I also think a squirrel is going to turn and run and bite me because I looked at him too long.

Well you hear those damn stories in the summer where some innocent person was minding their own business while doing their business and some asshole spider crawls out from behind the toilet and bites their ass.

Oh I am convinced every elevator I step in is going to break down.

secretsout · April 2014

I worry that I'm leaving DNA evidence everywhere I go and I will be accused of a crime I didn't commit.

I worry a lot about various car accident scenarios. I don't like to make left turns across traffic without a light. I plan way ahead for changing lanes or exit ramps.

During thunderstorms I worry that a tornado will come in the middle of the night and we won't know. We don't live in a tornado prone area, but they do happen sometimes.

I get super paranoid about bugs. If I've seen a bug in my room before bed, and I don't get rid of it first, I won't be able to sleep.

I use a card to punch in and out of work, like library card-size. Every time I get on the elevator I grip that card like it's the only thing keeping me alive because I'm paranoid that I'll drop it and it will some how fall just the right way and slip down the opening between the doors and the wall.
Same thing in parking lots: I hold on to my keys or phone or whatever so tight when I'm stepping over the gutter grates because I'm positive that one of these days I'll drop something in there.

I do this with parking validation tickets! I check my pocket constantly to make sure it is still there.

Ooh...I hate revolving doors. I truly believe I will either get stuck or I'll lose an appendage.

OMG I hate it when someone else gets in the same space as me in a revolving door.

Every noise at night is a serial killer/zombie/monster trying to break in.

Every time a police car drives by me I think I'm going to go to jail even though I don't drive and am always the passenger.

If my foot itches it might be those worms that crawl into your skin.

Random head aches in one tiny spot + seeing spots + dizzy = I'm clearly dying.

Someone just tried to open my door as I was typing this and now I'm 1000x's more convinced someone will break in. Who doesn't knock?!?!

NotSharknado · April 2014

I'm paranoid that geese will attack me.

I'm paranoid that I'll die and DD will be left alone by herself the entire day. I know that's morbid.

Same. If strangers are in there with me I freak even more.

I have a bizarre fear of vomiting. Me and others. The stomach virus is the worst thing that can ever happen. When I married DH and made him promise that we would be the vomit cleaner in the house. Also, when I go to my car after dark, i stomp and make a lot of noise because I am afraid a skunk or some other animal is under there waiting to attack my ankles

I'm not convinced it will break down, I'm convinced that as I'm stepping on to it, the cables will break and I will lose a leg because my body will be on the car and my other leg will not yet have made it all the way it. (You can thank the movie Speed for that one--when the lady is being pulled out and just makes it, but her shoe doesn't.)

I'm also very uncomfortable facing my husband while we're sleeping, if he is also facing me. I don't like to "rebreathe" his air. For real. I'm worried that I won't get enough fresh oxygen and will suffocate on his carbon dioxide. Apparently, this is legit for me, because DH reports that I even turn over in my sleep if he turns to face me and his face is near mine.

Some of these sound like they would have a big impact on your life.

I'm paranoid that I'm going to accidentally hit another car in the parking deck at work or hit the arm of the gate, and then I'll feel like such a dumbass.

I'm paranoid that I'll mix up salt and sugar in a recipe. Whenever I'm pouring sugar, I check the bag so many times to make sure it's actually sugar.

Paranoid of bugs crawling on me when I'm naked.

Any throat pain? Must be strep throat.

Basically any random isolated pain = I'm sick/Have some random disease
