Paranoid = More Stress = Higher Blood Pressure = Stroke/Heart Attack


Plus, it always seem that accidents happen to those are trying the hardest to prevent them.

I gradually became this paranoid. No event triggered it.

Hate my parents? NOO....

Pantyhose? NOOO

It seems that being paranoid is a risky behavior. I'm going to consider quitting being so paranoid.

OP, I have bad news for you. Once this thread drops below 55 posts per hour, it will explode and you will die a horrible, unsafe death.

I have been to the ER 3 times. One for chest pain. Two for headaches. The chest pain turned out to be muscle pain (I workout). The headaches were nothing serious. The doctor told me to stop worrying because I am indeed healthy.

BTW, I eat extremely healthy.

you may eat "healthy", but do you know where your food's been or who's touched it before you eat it?

Also, do you handle cash or wash it with dissinfectant before you touch it.

I always carry hand sanitizer. I cook my own food too. Organic food.

Yes. I only walk on grates that I have concluded to be safe after analyzing them for a few seconds before I step on them. Some of them you can tell that there is a 0% risk of them falling in.

there was a story yesterday where someone (was it Spain? was it somewhere in the US? I forget...) had been setting traps in a local park to capture joggers. He had placed sharp spikes at the bottom of deep pits, covering them with leaves, like a tiger trap. I think his traps have claimed around 8 joggers so far (none of them fatal, I believe)

Knowing this, how do you feel about jogging, or simply walking through a public park?

No more running or walking on grates for me.

I use clear shower curtains. I could spot a cockroach through the curtains. Speaking of insects, my room is hermetically sealed. No cracks on walls, closets or anything. I am actually 98% that there are no multicellular organisms in my room when I sleep.

what about yourself? did I just blow your mind?

lol.... except me, of course.

I use hand sanitizer every time I come in contact with something that could have germs...

What? no. BTW, isn't there a way to multi-quote so that I don't have to make a post to answer each question?

Did you realize that there are millions of pieces of untracked space junk & meteors flying over your head any of which could survive re-entry and land on your head at any minute?

Did you realize that there are weak spots in your arteries that are just waiting to burst and you could bleed to death internally in less than 3 seconds and never know it?

Did you know that the sea can without any warning create a random rogue wave over 100ft high, even in the open ocean?

Did you know that while swimming at the beach, you are always in close proximity to at least 6-10 poisonous or deadly creatures?

Did you know that if you dream about falling, and in your dream you actually hit the ground (instead of waking up), then you die instantly?




Have any of you heard the rumor that if you get blood poisoning, you get a blue line on your skin that follows your vein back to your heart (from the point of poisoning), and when it gets there you die?

Did you realize that excessive use of disinfectant increases exponentially your chances of creating a resistant strain of germs?

I'm going to go ahead and say you are just foolin' around.

Im going to say that its real...

1)In recent years, 2 houses and 1 lady were hit with falling space junk / meteorites.... It happens (this does not include houses and the boat hit by pieces of columbia breaking up)

2)Ever heard of an Aneurism?

3)Rogue Waves

4)Sharks, Sea Wasp, Man-Of War, Jellyfish, Starfish, Baracudas, Stingrays, Scorpionfish, Stonefish, Blue Ring Octopii, Rabbitfish, Tang, Weever Fish, Blowfish, Triggerfish, Cone shell, Auger shell, Sea snakes

5)Possibly a myth? I dont know how youd prove it... but there is much written about the subject.

also wanted to point out that...


your house contains ungrounded uninsulated knob & tube electrical wiring and your house is going to burn down.

your water pipes & paint are both made of lead, and your insulation is 75% asbestos.

your house is sitting on an abandoned unmapped mine and Radon gas is collecting in your bedroom.

your natural gas water heater is filling your basement with carbon monoxide, you also have a natural gas leak under your house and eventually it will explode.

What is a Tempest system.

My hard drive doesn't worry me. It's just a bunch of mechanical and electrical components.

A TEMPEST system allows easedroppers to read your computer screen from a block away. Essentially, by reconstructing the electromagnetic data which eminates from your screen they can read all that is there. Some hackers have driven around Wall Street collecting financial information displayed on computer screens inside buildings.

That doesn't worry me. I have nothing to hide. I am paranoid about things that could harm me or kill me.
