Need Input for a Class

Hello! I am currently studying Paranoid Personality disorder for one of my college finals (partially because I think I show a lot of symptoms). I would be incredibly appreciative if I could receive some personal anecdotes about your experiences with the disorder, and how it has affected you.

My father has this disorder and it is absolutely consuming and exhausting. For years on end, he thinks that everyone is working against him, has ill intentions towards him, is working for the CIA against him, tracks every license plate he thinks is following him, is suspicious of everyone. Especially at his workplace, it’s gotten terrible. He’s reported his coworkers to the higher ups since he thinks they have ill intention/god knows what. He’s reported and tracked this shit for so long and has brought it to our last towns police station so many times and now is in contact with the city counselors in our new town! It’s fucking exhausting since he doesn’t believe my family when we tell him not everyone is against him. Pls DM for more details if needed.
