Be careful with that one because it could mean any thing and you certainly wouldn't want him to get a misdiagnosed for what could be behind his paranoid feelings.
Sometime from his past or present could have triggered those paranoid feelings and that's what he needs to resolve. Maybe joining a mens group or a co-ed support group would be a way to get started on discovering what the root cause could be? That's what I would recommend and if he needs more then counseling could be helpful.
Check out MSN and Yahoo groups.

Maybe he has a Social Anxiety Disorder. Has he been evaluated by a Psychiatrist?? Usually the drugs dont do that kind of thing unless he has been using recently, and he is going through a withdrawal from the substance.

Doubt it seriously. He really needs to see someone. If he has a panic or anxiety disorder, there is help out there - it could make life a LOT easier. The other thing is therapy. But please encourage him to get help - if this is actually effecting him physically then it's time to have it checked out. Good luck to you both and good for you for supporting him!

I am not sure you are describing paranoia but it seems he is having anxiety problems. If you are able to help him to see this, maybe he will go to a Dr. to be evaluated. And no, smoking weed doesn't lead to this. Good luck.

Unfortunately it sounds alot like paranoid schizophrenia. He may want to get evaluated and get some med's a.s.a.p.

It could have been the weed.
Get a new boyfriend before he hurts you. Paranoid people ALWAYS hurt their partners.
