Paranoid Personality Disorder (PPD) is a mental health condition that involves a pervasive distrust and suspicion of others, even when there is no evidence to support these beliefs.
Here some of the symptoms of PPD

🌀 Persistent and unfounded suspicions of others, without evidence to support them.

🌀 Preoccupation with the belief that others are trying to harm, deceive, or exploit you.

🌀 Difficulty trusting others, even those closest to you, due to fear of betrayal.

🌀 Quickness to take offense and being highly sensitive to perceived criticism or slights.

🌀 Holding grudges and being unforgiving towards others for perceived wrongs or slights.

🌀 Being highly defensive and argumentative when feeling threatened or challenged.

🌀 Being overly secretive and suspicious of others' motives, including friends and family.

🌀 Being reluctant to share personal information, due to fear of being exploited or betrayed.

🌀 Being highly self-reliant and unwilling to delegate tasks or responsibilities to others.

🌀 Being highly critical and suspicious of authority figures, such as bosses, law enforcement, or political leaders.

🌀 Being prone to jealousy and suspicion in romantic relationships, and being quick to accuse partners of infidelity or betrayal.

🌀 Difficulty relaxing and a constant need to be vigilant and on guard against perceived threats.

🌀 Attributing negative intentions or motivations to others, even in the absence of evidence.

🌀 Refusal to seek help or trust others to provide support, due to fear of being manipulated or harmed.

🌀 Experiencing social and interpersonal difficulties, such as isolation, due to suspicion and mistrust.

⚠️ It's important to note that a diagnosis of paranoid personality disorder requires a qualified mental health professional to conduct a comprehensive evaluation, and that many of these symptoms can also be present in other mental health conditions.
