Paranoid Personality Disorder

I have been recently diagnosed with this.
With all I have read the cure for this is pretty much nil! :thumbdown:
Is there anyone else out there diagnosed with this and what has been your experience and has anything helped you?

I looked it up online. I think some of my family members have this, and to some extent, myself. I think having a healthy amount of paranoia is better compared to having 0 paranoia, like having no sense of safety. Paranoia prevents you from trusting people with mal intent, such as phishers and scammers. But too much is bad too.

I am not sure what cure there is for Paranoid Personality Disorder. But I think the environment has a big impact on mental development. Being surrounded by nice, trustworthy people could lessen the paranoia.

Diagnosed?

I accept this if it's cancer... Bowel... Optician... Broken leg...
Fine

Phyicical or internal brain bleeding (me), epilepsy or stroke, that's ok

But not some syndrome, judged... On a massive huge list of mental disorders... I think that is out of order. I might be wrong...?

My opinion is that any mental issue is personal. Chemicals may be helpful. The only person who could \ should ever understand or diagnose or improve on the problem is: The Patient. Yourself.

I tend to agree with this...

Did the person who made this diagnosis gave you any clue about what to do with this information?
