Paranoid Thoughts   website
It sometimes seems as if the one thing that unites the diverse peoples of the world is our fear of one another. Worries about other people are so common that they seem to be an essential - if unwelcome - part of what it means to be human. The focus of this website is not on justified anxieties about others, but rather on exaggerated or unfounded fears - fears for which there is little or no convincing evidence. Exaggerated worries about others do not help us stay safe but instead can bring all manner of distress.
