Paranoia is not just fear of people and things that do pose a real threat.. It is an unrealistic (imaginary) fear of things that aren't really a threat or irrational grandiosity. Sometimes I think every one in this country (USA) is paranoid. They make up things to fear and exaggerate those things that really may pose a threat. My advice is "face what you fear." Then when you are face to face with him, her or it you have an opportunity to assess how much of a danger it really is.

They are usually on medication. My ex-boyfriend was a paranoia schizophrenic, I only saw his paranoia come through one day, when he had stop taking his medication for 3 months. That made him break down in tears and was very paranoid about a lot of things, which made me paranoid. That is not why I broke up with him, he didn't want to contribute anything to our relationship, meaning I loved him, well we were together 3 years, and he couldn't say he loved me, I need to hear someone tell me that they love me.

Somehow I believe paranoia is becoming more common in youths these days.
Best way to deal with it to seek professional consulting.
Because paranoia is not one cause, it can be personality disorder, phychotic illness, can also be side effect of medication.(If person is on medication). It can vary.

In my experience, with counseling and medication. Paranoids tend to cut themselves off from help. It is a lonely, isolating situation, best treated early. If you trust someone, talk to them for advice and support. If you don't trust anyone, talk to several people who have no possible contact with each other, see if they say the same thing. Anonymous calls to help lines could be another route for a reality check.
