I always feel like I'm being watched?

I share a labtop with my mom. I have a password and everything, but I always feel as though she can see what I'm doing and can somehow see what I'm doing. Which, isn't exactly a problem. I'm not doing anything bad. Also, I have a jailbroken iPhone. A few weeks ago I got a virus, I fixed it, but ever since then I've been terrified that someone can now see exactly what I'm doing on it, or can spy on me from the camera.

I mean, I know it's unlikely and I sound crazy, and part of me knows it's weird, but part of me thinks its true. No matter how hard I try I can't stop thinking someone is watching me, one way or another. Like, through my window. Or maybe it's a camera in the walls, or maybe there's a ghost watching me. I actually do think these things sometimes, and like I said, I believe it but I also don't.

Am I just crazy or is there something wrong with me? I've had anorexia, I've self harmed, and I was abused as a kid. At the moment I think I hear a ghost breathing. Not even kidding.

Don't worry none of the stuff you're imagining is actually happening. Its just your fears getting to you. I want you to just relax and let it all go. Also try doing the following things.

1. Eat healthy - eat organic food, especially a lot of fruits and other foods listed at whfoods.com
2. Drink plenty of water, around 10 glasses
3. Get close to nature - Spend at least an hour in nature everyday and enjoy it
4. Focus on what you want - watch "The Secret"
5. Help others when you can - good karma
6. Get pets
7. Plan your career, learn about depression and your finances - read the books How to lift depression… Fast and how to master anxiety by the same authors, Rich Dad, Poor Dad and 7 Habits of Highly Effective people
8. Consider getting romantically involved with a person of your choice - ignore this she already has you
9. Sleep with the windows open for maximum fresh air
10. Let go of all anxiety before sleeping and just relax. Keep a journal or tell someone what is bothering you, don't keep anything inside you, let it all out to feel emotionally free.

Hope that helps. Feel free to email me by clicking on my name and then email

Me too! I always feel watched when I'm in public, I feel like everybody just sees how weird I'm and laughs at me. Sometimes they do, I hate it. I think its because I look very insecure. I also feel watched when I'm on my laptop, because it has a webcam. I'm worried people can see me trough my webcam. It makes me feel uncomfortable sometimes, especially when I'm eating.

Paranoid persecutory ideation.
Ideation is an 'idea', its often an unshakable idea. You may know the idea is not rational and disprove its legitimacy but it does not change the fact its stuck in your head.
Spending more time socializing or simply around others will help.
