Paranoia

Paranoia is like when your house has a broken smoke alarm. Hour after hour, day after day, year after year, your alarm goes off continuously. Then, one day, you walk down the stairs and you find that there is food on a skillet on a hot burner and the food is on fire. After you douse the flames and air out the house, your spouse says, "I told you that the smoke alarm works".

Paranoia is not a superpower. Paranoia is not a state of hyper awareness. Paranoia is when you insist that there is a monster in your closet, no matter how you many times you open the closet door to check for monsters. Never put a paranoid in charge of your safety. They will be so busy chasing after imaginary threats that they won't have time to look for real threats
