00:00Welcome back Sunbro, we hope you all in great health and great money.
00:04Before we start, please at least subscribe so we can have little money for food and paying
00:08bills.
00:09Alright, today we are going to talk about all you need to know about Paranoid Personality
00:14Disorder.
00:15Paranoid Personality Disorder PPD is a type of eccentric personality disorder where people
00:20are overly suspicious and mistrustful.
00:22This can affect daily life as you may believe others want to harm you.
00:26Some common traits include being reluctant to confide in others, holding grudges, and
00:29reading hidden threats in innocent comments.
00:32It affects 1.2% to 4.4% of people worldwide.
00:36Treatment can be tough since you may not trust others, including healthcare professionals,
00:40but they'll work with you to build trust.
00:421.
00:43Causes and Risk Factors PPD's exact cause is unknown, but it likely
00:47involves a mix of biological and environmental factors.
00:50It's more common in families with schizophrenia or delusional disorder and may be linked to
00:54childhood trauma.
00:55Other risk factors include being divorced, widowed, or single, as well as low-income
00:59living.
01:00Studies show African Americans, Native Americans, and Hispanic Americans are more likely to
01:05be diagnosed, potentially due to trauma and stress.
01:082.
01:09Symptoms of PPD You might believe others have hidden motives,
01:12doubt people's loyalty, or struggle to work with others.
01:15Other signs include hypersensitivity to criticism, anger, social isolation, and trouble relaxing.
01:21It can be hard to recognize these behaviors, and they can overlap with conditions like
01:25schizophrenia or borderline personality disorder.
01:283.
01:29Diagnosing PPD To diagnose PPD, doctors will ask about
01:32your symptoms, medical history, and may refer you to a mental health professional for further
01:36evaluation.
01:38You may be asked about your childhood, relationships, and how you'd react in certain situations.
01:43From there, a diagnosis and treatment plan will be formed.
01:464.
01:47Treatment for PPD Treatment is possible but challenging since
01:50those with PPD often don't see their behavior as problematic.
01:53Talk therapy or psychotherapy can help you cope, improve social communication, and reduce
01:58paranoia.
01:59Medications like antidepressants or mood stabilizers may be used, especially if there's depression
02:03or anxiety.
02:05Combining therapy with medication is often effective.
02:085.
02:09Long-term Outlook Your outlook depends on how open you are to
02:11treatment.
02:12Without it, PPD can make it hard to keep a job or maintain healthy relationships.
02:17But with ongoing treatment, life can improve, even though PPD doesn't go away completely.
02:22You'll need to manage symptoms with long-term care and support.
