Answer 2

Paranoia is medically classed as a psychotic disorder. The sufferer feels persecuted by others. He also usually has an exaggerated view of his own self-importance. Although paranoia is a mental illness, it is not usually an isolated condition and is often linked to some other mental illness.

It is difficult to determine the cause or causes of paranoia. Paranoid people may suffer from an emotional and mental breakdown in certain thought processes. An incident in the past may have built up unconsciously into a serious underlying mental disturbance. Repressed feelings can also be a cause of paranoia, along with circumstances or projected feelings onto other people.

Answer 3

Paranoia is an excessive anxiety or fear concerning one's own well-being which is considered irrational and excessive, perhaps to the point of being a psychosis. This typically includes persecutory beliefs concerning a likely threat, or a belief in a conspiracy theory. In the original Greek, παράνοια (paranoia) means simply madness (para = outside; nous = mind) and it is this use which was traditionally used in psychiatry to describe any delusional state. However, the exact use of the term has changed over time in medicine, and because of this, modern psychiatric usage may vary.
