That sounds more like anxiety - you must be under a lot of stress. If i forget to stop worrying about life before i smoke to get stoned, i have 2 tricks that helpIt's not so much paranoia just more rapid heartbeat and feels like can't breath and all that rookie crap...I know it's in my head but the feeling still sux
a) if it's daytime, i use the anxiety as energy fuel, and do all the sh#ttie$t jobs waiting for me (the ones i keep putting off), and doing them makes me feel less anxious, so double win. Note: do NOT do your taxes in this state, you ROYALLY screw yourself. (Although the next year, i got a big rebate, so...)
2) if it's night, i make lists & plans. So geeky, it's called a brain dump - just like a phone memory dump or computer clean up, you take everything on your mind & dump it somewhere else. I did feel stupid in the beginning, but it works, so now it's normal now. It also lets you feel more in charge of your life, which lessens overall anxiety. They're useless sometimes, but mostly, very handy for calming racing thoughts.
I'm in lecture mode today, it seems...
