Question Posted Friday January 6 2017, 5:29 am

I'm only 16 but all my life I've always been paranoid My family describes me as shy but Im convinced it's social anxiety but I'm not 100% sure because I'm not diagnosed but anyways as a kid I remember being afraid of getting kidnapped I had nightmares about it and everything I've always been afraid of strangers I never knew why I was always afraid but I was and I've started to think more and more since I'm a little older and I don't think I had a traumatic incident in my life to be that afraid of the world and I'm sure it doesn't help that I love watching law and order and murder shows but I dont find it normal.. Up until October when there actually was an incident where someone man was trying to break into my house I've become even more paranoid than before but I feel it's a little necessary now.. Even tho most of you aren't doctors or anything can anyone help me understand what this is I'm sorta describing and why I was like this even before a traumatic event happened ??

Alright, now I may sound wacky for saying this but I believe in us all having had past lives. I can't remember where I read it but as we all know, we are made to forget any previous lives once reborn again. the only thing that seems to stick sometimes hanging around are the abnormal fears that we have no reason in this lifetime to associate with why we have a certain fear. I believe as I read that this is a possible explanation although theres no way to prove it. For example, I have a fear of drowning so perhaps in a past life I died from drowning. Others may be terrified of snakes for no reason but perhaps in a past life they died of snake bite. Our souls have a knee jerk reaction to certain things but without any reason in this lifetime to account for it. While you may have social anxiety, (I had it as a kid and teen) thats not the same thing as this one paranoid fear you are mentioning. Your ffear of being kidnapped is what has you not trusting strangers, i had no other fear than being picked on by kids and teased if I messed up or didnt fit in. I am no professional but have read of people with situations like yours finding solutions under hypnosis. Other than than, just keep telling yourself that it happened in a past life and won;t in this one.
