... for over a month now. The last time that happened a month ago, I thought that my brother and his friend were laughing at me because I was anxious about my new volunteer job. My pdoc says that was called, "overvalued thinking". Anyways, this month has gone by so well, and my last attack was so mild I didn't even need to take Ativan for it. I hope things improve in this direction for me in the near future.

Hi Fleurette
Over valued thinking.....
I think we all do that sometimes and if you dont get it under control it becomes paranoia for me.

I am glad your attacks are subsiding and good luck with your volunteer work.

I always think my house is a mess but my kids come in and go Mum its fine...our minds are strange and play tricks on us.

Hi Sue, thanks for wishing me good luck with my volunteer job. As it turned out no body wanted to make cards last week at the group home so I had to go home. I will call the coordinater and see if we can get a sign up list going so that I don't have to travel there for nothing.

Hand made cards are beutiful.....I accidently bought one for my daughter at Big W a supermarket here and it cost $16....,when I realized that I had to return it and get a cheaper on unfortunately....you could have a lucrative little business there.
Hope it all works out....not everyone is broke like me.
Sue :-D

I get those feelings once in a while when I hear the girls at work laughing. I sometimes wonder if they are laughing at me. How I have learned to handle it is through confidence. I tell myself that if they are laughing at me that they are childish. I know I am a good person. I catch them laughing at others a lot so I figure they probably do it to me too.

Hi Chelle, how immature of your co-workers. It's good that you have the confidence against that effecting you. I haven't had this feeling for 2 months now, so it is a faboulous feeling.

I've only been free of this symptom for a few short months and now it's coming back. In July of this year I started to feel that people are laughing at me. It is a recurrence of residual symptoms and I hope that it goes away again for a few months.

I haven't had the feeling that people are laughing at me for several months now. It is such a good feeling.
