Paranoid Personality Disorder FAQs

How long does it take to diagnose paranoid personality disorder?

To diagnose paranoid personality disorder (PPD) a doctor will start by performing a complete medical history and physical examination. The doctor might use various diagnostic tests to rule out physical illness as the cause of the symptoms. If the doctor finds no physical reason for the symptoms, they might refer the person to a psychiatrist or psychologist, who will use specifically design assessment tools to make a diagnosis. Personality disorder diagnoses are typically made in individuals 18 or older. People under 18 are typically not diagnosed with personality disorders because their personalities are still developing.

Who can diagnose paranoid personality disorder?

Only a trained mental health professional, such as a psychiatrist or psychologist, has the knowledge and experience to diagnose paranoid personality disorder. You may use self-assessment tools like Psycom’s paranoid personality disorder test as a first step to identify if you may be experiencing symptoms of the disorder, but a formal diagnosis can only be made by a licensed mental health professional or doctor.

How is paranoid personality disorder diagnosed?

Paranoid personality disorder can be diagnosed by a mental health professional or doctor. If your doctor finds no physical reason for the symptoms you are experiencing, they may refer you to a psychiatrist or psychologist for a thorough mental health evaluation. Your healthcare provider will use the criteria outlined in the DSM-5, a specifically designed interview, and other assessment tools to consider a possible diagnosis.

What causes paranoid personality disorder?

The exact cause of paranoid personality disorder (PPD) is not known, but it likely involves a combination of biological and psychological factors. Research has shown that PPD is more common in people who are closely related to people with schizophrenia, suggesting a link between to the two disorders. Other environmental factors, such as the impact of early childhood experiences, are also thought to be part of the development of PPD.

What does it feel like to have paranoid personality disorder?

People with paranoid personality disorder (PPD) have a hard time trusting others and often believe others are using or deceiving them. This can cause people with PPD to feel like they always need to be on-guard or skeptical of the intentions of those around them. For some people with PPD, it can feel like everyone is against them. As a result, they are reluctant to confide in others and are hypersensitive to criticism.

How is paranoid personality disorder treated?

Many people with paranoid personality disorder (PPD) may not seek treatment on their own accord, either because they do not see that their behaviors are out of the ordinary or because they are distrusting of other people, including the healthcare professionals wanting to help them. Treatment for PPD is usually centered on psychotherapy. While there are no specific medications to treat PPD, medication may be prescribed if symptoms are severe or to treat co-occurring conditions, like anxiety or depression.

What is the difference between paranoid personality disorder and schizophrenia?

While both paranoid personality disorder and schizophrenia share the symptoms of mistrust in others, withdrawing from society, and being out of touch with reality, schizophrenia differs from paranoid personality disorder in that delusions and hallucinations are present. People with paranoid personality disorder may have unfounded beliefs about the people and situations around them, but these are not a result of actual delusions or hallucinations.

Variance tests | Diagnosis of mental disorders

Test for mental disorders

The human psyche is so amazing that it is hardly possible to say something irrefutable, the only correct one about it. This gives rise to many theories and diagnoses. And given the crazy pace of modern life, it is not surprising that the number of people with neurosis or psychosis has increased significantly. This test for mental disorders will help recognize signs of abnormalities or a predisposition to them, if any.

1. Do you have a strong long-term desire to avoid contact with anyone, even those closest to you?

Yes, I don't want to see anyone at all, and this goes on for weeks.

Sometimes this feeling happens, but then everything changes dramatically, and I become an over-communicative and very active person.

I sometimes want to isolate myself from other people. And if I do, then I feel strange, as if everything around me is unreal. Unusual images, visions may appear.

This desire arises when I want to punish myself or think that my association with people may put my life in serious danger.

I may have a desire to be alone with myself, but it does not last more than a couple of days.

2. Are there things, people, or activities that can quickly and permanently distract you from anxiety, bad mood, or even calm you completely?

No, nothing makes me happy lately, and I lose interest in everything that made me happy before.

I have protracted states when nothing can improve my mood. And then I enter another “mode”, and it becomes difficult for me to concentrate, there is chaos in my head, I take on everything at once.

Yes, but most often my mood changes when I suddenly hear voices or see signs that speak of my exclusivity. Then I feel like a chosen person.

Yes, these are short but systematic actions that I need to perform constantly when I am worried about something. I understand that I cannot refuse to perform these tasks, I am obliged to do them.

Yes. As a rule, this is the support of loved ones, favorite hobbies, memorable or just pleasant things (graduation photo album, delicious food, good music, etc.).

3. How often do you have insomnia?

Often. Although there is no objective reason for this, I just lose sleep. This state lasts for weeks, and even months with short breaks.

Sometimes I can not sleep at all for several days in a row because I am bursting with internal energy. On those days, I feel like I don't need sleep at all.

No/mild insomnia, but it is often difficult to know when sleep ended and wakefulness began or vice versa.

I very often cannot fall asleep under the influence of disturbing, terrifying thoughts for which there is no objective reason.

In general, I have a normal sleep, and if insomnia does occur, it does not happen so often and always has a reason (stress, disturbed sleep schedule, acclimatization, etc. ).

4. Is there anything that you fear so much that it really poisons your life and prevents you from enjoying it?

Yes, this is a fear for my future or the future of my loved ones, an increased fear of death.

Sometimes I am very worried about the future, and sometimes I am afraid of conspiracies against myself, persecution. There are also moments when I realize that I am not afraid of anything at all.

Sometimes I'm afraid of what's going on in my head. Sometimes I'm scared because I feel like I'm seeing, feeling, or hearing something that doesn't exist or that no one else notices.

I am constantly anxious, I often have frightening or nervous thoughts in my thoughts that are very difficult for me to get rid of. Often they are groundless.

I have a few fears, like all people, but in general they do not interfere with my life.

5. Have you ever thought about intentionally hurting yourself physically?

Yes, I have a desire to mutilate myself or commit suicide.

Such a desire periodically appears, and it lasts for a long time, but then abruptly disappears.

Sometimes I hear voices or other people's thoughts telling me to do something bad to myself.

Under the influence of anxiety, fear, panic, I sometimes cause physical harm to myself without noticing it at first (I scratch the skin until it bleeds, hit, pinch myself). Or I have an obsessive fear of death, infection, injury.

No, I have no such thoughts or intentional desire to harm myself.

6. Choose the statement that best suits you.

My affairs, appearance, health, social status are often completely indifferent to me.

I had periods when I obsessively followed other people, believed that there was a conspiracy around me, or suddenly began to abruptly look for life-threatening, extreme sensations.

Sometimes I have hallucinations or delusions. Sometimes it is very difficult for me to distinguish the real from the fictional. I do not always distinguish between dream and reality.

I have 'rituals' that I must follow, even if I may be late for work, a flight, or miss an important meeting. This is something like shifting small objects one at a time, senseless actions, accurate counting of objects, etc.

None of the above or the symptoms are subtle.

7. Have you ever been diagnosed with any of the following by psychotherapists/psychiatrists?

Depression (any type).

Bipolar disorder (BAD).

Schizophrenia or its varieties.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

None of the above.

8. Do people around you think that your actions or words are very strange and definitely not normal?

Yes, they think that my apathy and depressed mood are inadequate reactions.

Yes, sometimes they say that I behave like a real psycho-maniac, although they sometimes say that I have a terrible depression that requires the intervention of a doctor.

Sometimes they literally do not understand my language, they ask me to repeat words or whole sentences, they say that there is absolutely no logic in my reasoning and that this is a sign of deviation.

Yes, they do not understand the reasons for my actions at all and consider me paranoid with unhealthy perfectionism.

Not at all. Sometimes I have misunderstandings with others, but there is nothing critical in them.

9. How often do you have negative, pessimistic, or anxious thoughts that make you feel down?

Often, and such states last for weeks, I can't do my usual activities, I lose interest in old hobbies.

Often and for a long time, and then something suddenly “switches” in me, and I become noticeably more active, more cheerful, I can do in a week what I could not do for months.

Sometimes, while concentrating, remembering something, and thinking in general, it becomes difficult. Sometimes I see strange things.

Systematically. I can't get my mind off these thoughts. At such moments, I begin to perform repetitive actions that calm me down.

Everything, like everyone else. Sometimes I have negative thoughts, but they have specific reasons.
