I'm so paranoid.

Sometimes I'm feeling pretty good and than there will come a sudden rush of paranoia out of the blue. It will suck out all of my energy and I don't know what to do about it.
I'm paranoid that my boyfriend is constantly lying to me, that my relationship with him is not as real as I think it is. I think he's cheating, lying, doing whatever you can do behind my back.. And I know somewhere in my mind that it's just the paranoia talking, but than I think 'what if it's not paranoia but the truth'. And so on. It seems like an endless loop I'm in.
 
You're definitely not alone. Try to ground yourself by asking questions to help challenge the thoughts.

Where did this chain of thoughts originate from?
What do I know is true right now?
What evidence do I have of that tells me these things are true?

Hope this helps.

Thank you so much:) I'm also writing in a journal so I can keep it out of my head. Im doing better now but this paranoia keeps coming and going
