I always feel like people are talking about me.
Like if I hear people whispering, I think I hear my name even if they really didn’t say anything about me. And when I’m in a class at school and everyone’s talking, I think I hear my name sometimes. Or if I’m at school and I hear someone behind me say “she” I always think they mean me, even if it’s people I don’t know. Is that normal or am I being really paranoid?

Thats called paranoia. If you don’t control that it will drive you crazy. Try not to think about it too much. Use things to focus like read a book and tune those things out.
OMG i get that, but i also have this idea that everyone knows what i’m thinking or can see what i can see or that they are simply spying on me… i dont know what to do, i’m only 16, i’ve talked about it to people on this site before and they said that i may have SPD cus i am not interested in relationships of any kind or social stuff cus i just prefer to do things alone…
You think too much. I’m guilty of the same thing. I’m going to assume that you are the type of person that over thinks things and things way too deeply about simple things. You have to cut that out. You need two doses of ‘f***** it.’ When you find yourself thinking about something too much just say to yourself, ‘f***** it.’
i find that i cant trust people which in turn stops me getting close and making friends, I feel people are out to get me so i always have my guard up.

They have counseling for people with trust issues. You should try doing that. You don’t want to be alone and not have friends. It will turn you bitter.
i dont get why its wrong to be like that, they cant help it, why should they change if they dont want to (thats if you dont, if you do then fine…)

Hiya I suffer from a simular thing. I have been told that i am suffering from depression. Speak to your doctor they will help you.
well people dont stop talking about me at school i dont know y!!!:S:S:S:S I got used for the idea… now when i know someone is talking about me its not like i care cz its normal for me now i say yeaaa whateva… but still wondering y do they talk about me!!!
I have the same thing. When my husband has his bf over, I am always thinking that they are talking about me. I hear whispering in the other room, but I don’t know if it is real, and I do not know if it is me they are discussing or something else.
I do have depression with paranoia, and I am seeing someone about it, but it doesn’t stop me from having this nagging feeling that they are talking about me. And what if they are talking about how weird I’ve been acting lately?
Now I have to go to sleep, but I can’t because they are in the other room, and I think I hear them whispering.
Anxiety, depression, paranoia all suck ! but you just have to break the habit, its just a thinking habit. Im doing my best to deal with it. I go through phases of having it then not but its making my life awful now i have to stop it !
Exercise and a healthy diet helps a lot tho, and also get your B12 count checked. Low B12 can cause paranoia and depression.
Hope you all feel better soon
Good luck xo

Be response I ever read in my entire life!!!
I suffer from somewhat the same thing. I have anxiety and depression, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. See a doctor and they will diagnose you, if necessary, and give you medication. It is a chemical imbalance in the brain and not your fault… low self esteem is part of having anxiety. I have had some pretty unnerving thoughts too… usually with me thinking that people at work are talking about me. If I hear someone whisper or here she I immediately think they are talking about me also. I am going to get medication for anxiety today and it is supposed to take a couple weeks before it starts working. I suggest you go and talk to somebody… I went to my physician and he said that he would prescribe me medication but decided to go see a psychologist that he recommended and she said that I should be on medication so today I am going to the psychiatrist to figure out what type of medication I should take. I am excited to get help and I hope that you do too! (Whether you need medication or just someone to talk to!) Best of Luck!
i have a friend, or should i say [had]i just could not stay in a relation with her she is so suspicious it annoys me, she always have the idea that i talk about her, if she sees me talking to any one and she is not in the conversation, worse yet if you!re looking in her direction and do call her over i think she is crazy what dou think i think as a man thinketh so is he.
