"I was actually here first" Yes, I know you were, sweetie. I have plenty of issues, but, so far, paranoia is not on the list! And, your explanation of our "tribal roots," shall we say, makes perfect sense. I do also have a fair number of OCD traits and probably qualify for the grand prize diagnosis. However, I don't seem to have any of the paranoia-related ones, like germaphobia, etc. (I think I am more compulsive than obsessive, perhaps!) And, yeah, I used to cut/self-harm. But not since becoming a mother, at least not overtly. Anyway, it's fun to keep finding you wherever I go!
