Paranoia, sexual jealousy or otherwise, is a landing with many open doors, each a stormy vortex of grim possibility. If you enter them, my love, one or many, don't ask me for a rope or lifeguard ring. What you got yourself into, get yourself out of and lock those damn doors for good.
The paranoid have learned how to see the "bad wolf" in everyone, even in those whom are family and friends, yet not learned how to see their inner struggle with their "good wolf" self. We all have this struggle and only when you can identify this triggering process within yourself will you see it in others and be able to make allowances for them, responding in ways that bring out their inner "good wolf," that enable them to switch back to their better self all the faster. To do this you must have let go of your own inner masks, you must know yourself as you really are, all illusions down. For those who fool themselves are easily fooled. Those who know themselves and learn how to become their best self can know and guide others to achieve the same. Paranoia can be beaten when you realise where you are and the battle you are waging.
The brain in fear can become scattered and unfocused, yet the primitive fears can also hijack the ability for logical analysis to produce a plethora of paranoid ideas that sound so plausible that even the teller fails to see them for what they are. And so in the pandemic the wild conspiracy theories exploded.
When stressed and afraid, the human brain is only made better at learning and remembering things we fear - it locks us in with our demons and gives them longer claws. It makes us want to hide in the dark and make no sound, ready to fight if we need to. In this state we invent new monsters, we look for more, desperate to survive... though in truth the stress may have been caused by poverty... the result is that we amp up the fear of whatever we've been conditioned or directed to fear. We loose the ability of the higher mind to hush those fears and restore inner peace; all other types of learning need a more relaxed and calm state. They need a little light to show that the "monsters" are only clothes in the closet, that perhaps a fancy dress costume made an interesting shadow, but everything is okay. Calmness is as the dawn when the real world is seen, and the actors pulling the levers of fear are revealed.
