I know this isn't paranoid schizophrenia b/c the person does not hear any voices. But how would you classify being afraid of ordinary situations a lot? For example, walking into the local grocery store and feeling that if one looks tired, upset or sick or is not smiling and professional enough and this is caught by an overhead camera, one may be asked to leave the store. Or being constantly afraid of being watched, even in bathrooms, and accused of something at store or other places. It is to the point where person imagines scenarios of talking to accuser but not being listened to, or being afraid something bad will happen when going to normal places or seeing everyday people and sometimes seeing things people or places and panicking or being very jumpy? I guess it is some fear of persecution and some feeling of having to be perfect or all will be lost and feeling no way to be perfect like that. It is like an everyday defeat and fear of tomorrow.
