Are you struggling with paranoid thoughts?
Paranoid personality disorder involves a pattern of pervasive distrust and suspiciousness of others such that people’s motives are often interpreted as malevolent. Individuals suspect and fear that others will exploit them, attack them, or otherwise harm them. Severity and lack of evidence distinguish this from paranoia. Take this test to assess if you or someone you know displays symptoms of this disorder.
