Question for my fellow hypochondriacs. Has using Yahoo Answers increased or decreased your paranoia?

just because I'm paranoid don't mean nobody is watching

I think that this is one of the best sites that I have found. I enjoy trying to help other people, and getting the advice from others. Except for the ones that give the perverted answers for everything. Some people can't get their minds out of the gutter for anything. Sorry, I guess that is another answer for another question. So, yes this is a great site.

Years and years ago I used to have a great time on IRC. Then I lost interest. Jumping in now simply confirms what I've suspected all along: I've been PWNED! Oh, the humanity. \n\nYou are absolutely right.

Not mine I'm afraid, but a friend emailed and told me about this guy that bought an electronic stun-gun for his wife's personal safety. He didn't want to give it to her without being sure it would work when needed so decided to test it on himself.\n\nWhen he finally came to, it was because the spasms of his muscles had eventually jerked the device out of his hand, but he still felt groggy for quite a while\n\nThere was also the person who dropped their cellphone in the toilet. For the 2nd time. Still having trouble keeping a straight face about that one.

Being alone.  I try to surround myself with people that I love at all times. I'm on the phone, on the computer....all the time. I have panic attacks when my children get sick for fear of living my life without them. Don't know why really. I think it was brought on in the last couple years when my mother got caught up in methamphetamines. I haven't had a mother ever since. Some questions are better left unanswered.

I was diagnosed with panic attacks and they are truly horrifying. I really sympathsize with you because most people who haven't had one think "you can talk yourself out of it."  I was prescribed Paxil and valium but the side effects of the Paxil sounded just as bad as the attacks. This sounds kind of silly but it helped me to use products containing Lavender. At bed time I use a lavender room spray for my pillow and lavender bubble bath etc. I thought it was silly when someone told me lavender contained a natural calming effect but it has helped me a lot. Plus, I got rid of the most stressful thing in my life... A creepy ex boyfriend! Good luck to you and remember that us worryworts usually make  mountains out of a molehills!

I believe that it is a good possiblilty. Not necessarily here on Yahoo! Answers per se, but throughout the internet. I don't think that anyone other than Yahoo! keeps "track" of the kinds of questions being asked. A "red flag" may pop up if a certain question or answer qualifies a a threat. Did you know that these questions and answers appear as keywords when searching other engines too?

hey everyone has different reasons for visiting an posting in this site. i think its pretty cool and i am amazed at what people say. i admit its funny and sometimes very stupid questions.i only feel sorry for people who are on line 24/7. its good to be on line you also need t be around people. that's just horrible!! anyways this site is pretty interesting. sometimes there's questions you cant actually stand up and ask.  so you can feel comfortable. or whatever reason. as for my stupid questions...I'm surprised how many people are actually supportive and informing me with there intelligent information. as for sellfesteem , confidence, accepting who you are, most of all listening to your own advise. dont always rely on other people. no one knows you better than ure self. iight hun... good question. good luck

Did you mean: paranoia? \n\nIf so, I still don't understand your question. Not sure why you would waste 5 points on such a poorly worded and ambiguous question...

Me and my daughter who is now 20 have been stalked, harassed and under electronic mind control harassment now for over 8 years and about 2 months ago they (believed to be the governments underground “New World Order Organization”  i.e. Citizen Gang Groups) started in electronically zapping my grandchild 8 months old. \n\nI started a website call:  organizedcrimewaves.com\nbut I have been unable to finish it due to the increase in stalkings and harassments of which have psychologically  impaired me to only concentrate on keeping us (including my entire family – even those who do not live with us) alive.\n\nAfter what I believe to be organized 7 murders due to the nature of death, gunshot, and just a couple of days ago ... a man left dead in a swimming pool last Tuesday, June 13th 2006, over 10 car accidents I can get no one to do anything.\n\nI’ve faxed the man holding the seat as president George Bush over 3 times DIRECT to the White House Fax w/FAX CONFIRMATION (listed in YOUR Yellow Page Directory) regarding then the stalkings and harassments... No Reply Whatsoever!\n\nSo in reply to your answer on Yahoo could you please do this:\n\nGO TO\na)www.c-a-t-c-h.ca/\nb)www.raven1.net\nc)www.multistalkervictims.org/\nd)http://www.the7thfire.com/new_world_order/mind_control/what_is_mind_control-audio.htm\ne)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/\nf)www.icdc.com/~paulwolf/cointelpro/churchfinalreportllla.htm\ng)http://educateyourself.org/mc/\nh)www.cointelpro.org\ni)yahoo group “cause stalkings”\nj)And if I/we live to finish it my website still under construction:  organizedcrimewaves.com\n\nPass this on to friends and families and ask them to pass it on to their associates\n\n*AMERICA NEEDS TO KNOW*\n\nTHANK YOU for your anticipated time and consideration

LOL... that's funny... I was just thinking of how useful this site can be or just time consuming becuase it gets addictive... I think everyone should at least Ask ONE! question on Yahoo!Answers once in thier lifetime! LOL It's funny how not that many people know about it either because Yahoo! doesn't advertise it hardly... just a small little link over by the search button... I was lucky to have come across it though because some of you have helped me out tremendously with the advice parts of my question asking... So yeah... if you say so it has changed my life in a good way for my mental state going through splitsville with my husband, and reading some of the funny answers and even funnier questions being asked!..

Congrats.\nYou actually have a point, man... I will watch over my answers and questions from now on! Oh-oh-oh!

Yeah, I agree with what someone else said in a previous comment....If you're able to question rather or not you're crazy, chances are - You're Not!...Unfortunately, I had grown up around people that were mentally ill. (my Grandmother, & a cousin) who has been in & out of mental wards all their life...They didn't know they were ill, nor did they know what they were doing, saying, etc...

isn't it interesting to see how so many users will leave you a nasty answer? would they be that rude if they knew you in person? i bet not. it's amazing how the computer just allows all of the demons to come out & say & do what they will. \n\nanyway, did you enjoy the pizza i sent over? i sent you extra cheese! hope it was yummy!!!
