If my mama knew how lax I was she would kill me for being so stupid.
My car door is never ever locked.
My apartment doors are only locked sometimes. The tv and all the lights are always on.

I need to be more careful and paranoid. I always leave my personal stuff out for the world to see, and I'm always talking to creepy people. I just attract them for some reason. The other day I went to the park early in the morning by myself with no cellphone or pepper spray and while I was walking, some creepy buff dude comes running next to me. And what do I do? I begin chatting with this dude through the whole park. And mind u, its barely light outside and we are the only people there. I could've gotten raped or killed because I was being careless

these sound more like ocd than paranoia:
I triple check doors and windows each and every night before I go to bed
I sleep in a dead coma but any little noise will have me up with a quickness
I still sleep wth my bedroom door open even tho my kids are MUCH older now just so I can hear them
I walk with a purpose everywhere I go and I don't stop for strays either
I carry hand sanitizer galore and rarely touch door handles or other public items like toilets, bathroom doors; i flush public toilets with my foot *I'm a ninja*
I will question whomever to death until I get the answers I need; this could be anyone but mostly happens at work (my coworkers hate this)
I still check on my kids/tuck them in when they are sleeping even tho they are MUCH older now (they hate this)

oodles, i do all of these except i park in front, under a light.
i also carry my keys in my knuckles.
at night, i approach my car at an angle so i can see under it to make sure no one is under it...i remember my dad telling me (when i was 7) that men hide under cars and will slash your achilles heels and then carjack you/kidnap you.
i wake up in the middle of the night to check locks.
i don't like to go anywhere by myself.
i don't talk to ppl when i'm out...i put on a bitchface so ppl don't talk to me.
mine is paranoia, though.

I hate the feeling of someone walking behind me within like 10 feet of me. This includes friends I hate the feeling of someone standing behind my chair when I'm seated. I'm not sure what exactly I think will happen though I, sometimes, jump into my bed real quick so nothing grabs/slits my ankles jk.....

I'm super paranoid. I think everyone is out to get me and there is a massive plot to bring about my demise.

I don't like to sit with my back to a door. I really hate that. I don't like to sit near restrooms either, I will ask for another seat if possible.

Every night I ask my husband if he's "secured the perimeter"
When I lived alone, I was a lot more cautious, probably paranoid, couldnt stand quiet because every rattle, bump in the night was a murderer from Cold Case Files
LOL

When I'm going to be in a certain place for an extended amount of time, i always look something that can be used as a weapon and, like tc mentioned, i'm searching for exits.
i usually walk in the back when i'm with a group because i don't want anyone to get lost.
i have those cheap window alarms and fake security stickers on all my windows cause i don't want to spend money on ADT.
when i walk alone, i speak to crazy people and try to be as nice but "hard" as possible when they speak to me. i figure this will deter them from doing something crazy if i completely ignore them.
some other stuff...i have to think about it.
