George -- this isn't an attack -- but have you considered the possibility
that you might be suffering a relapse -- read the following snippet from a
site on schizophrenia. Only you know what you're like in real life, but
your online persona seems to fit uncomfortably closely with a diagnosis of
paranoid schizophrenia.
Delusions:
What is characteristic of the schizophrenic, especially during an acute
period, is that the conviction is fixed and alternate explanations for the
events experienced are not even considered. Arguing with a delusion only
leads to further mistrust or anger. The beliefs are tenaciously held,
against all reason, and they are held only by the person himself and by no
one else.
Preoccupations:
These are fixed ideas, not necessarily false (like delusions) but
overvalued. That means they take on extraordinary importance and take up an
inordinate amount of thought time. Sometimes these preoccupations have a
mystifying character to them. They seem to require puzzling over and
decoding. The schizophrenic patient spends much time in this kind of
activity and that is why he thinks he has solved mysteries that others
haven't, since they have spent no time at it. When lost in thought,
schizophrenics do not want to be distracted. They feel they have important
work to do to try and come to the bottom of the puzzle.
