It isn't bad at all to feel you're being watched over by a loving God, but it's apparent that feeling is accompanied by less positive thoughts. Wishing you the best as you seek balance.

I just recently learned about pronoia also… It’s so unknown, that even auto correct on my keyboard continues to mark it wrong…

But it’s a learning that brought a ton of relief for me… Imagine things working out in my favor instead of against me like paranoia.

I don’t suffer from paranoia, but I started listening to my conversations with other persons. I was living like the universe/GOD was against me. Then I discovered PROnoia. It was like a light switched on… If people think everything is against them, then the opposite must be true as well… so simple

I stated watching for it… until Schizophrenia… then I was miserable and I don’t even have it. Just observing and caring for Shade really whipped my zeal for life this year…. It’s just now with counseling that I can even consider a world with pronoia again in sync with good deeds.

It must be working… because here you are reminding me of the topic. It’s a bit different for Shade and I, but I think ultimately having something positive to look forward to is much better for us.

It’s always our hope and prayers, for your continued wellness. We appreciate how well the medications help you. It shouldn’t be much longer and Shade will stabilize as well, and for that we are grateful for you sharing your experiences with us!

Take Care!

I hope you can feel the world and maybe God is contrived to help you. :) I am hopeful for Shade as well and her continued stabilization.
