Making Sense of Paranoia provides a refreshing and challenging contribution to debates over mental health. Mainstream psychiatric texts tend to foreground medical explanations for mental distress, with the direct experiences and personal narratives of the sufferers themselves then used as evidence to substantiate pre-existing concepts. This book takes a radically different approach. Here, the personal narratives of sufferers are prioritised and then the prevailing theoretical frameworks are examined to see if they fit with the sufferers’ lifeworld, rather than the other way round. Seen from this perspective, it is argued that we require alternative ways to conceptualise paranoia and new forms of intervention to alleviate the suffering of those who experience distressing beliefs. What the contributors to this book have in common is their direct experience of paranoia, either through lived experience, the provision of professional support, or through developing new theoretical explanations to help us understand both the influences on, and experience of, paranoia.

Ever wake up and not know where you are, or how you got there and you're not sure where home is? "Unbelievable! I'll tell you what is unbelievable, my sister and I were on vacation with our mother in Roswell, and that's the last thing either of us can remember. The next thing we know we wake up in that cave with you, Lycus and Lady Bellmany. You tell Belle and me we are on another planet, but even you don't know how or why we are here. If we don't know where we are, our parents sure don't know where we are. Do you know how worried they must be?!" Tears were streaming down Sam's face, and her voice was cracking, "You tell us we have to stick close to you to be safe, but you won't explain exactly why. On top of all that, you tell us that Rikka is related to us, except she is almost the color of snow, has elf-like ears and levitates in midair. You make us responsible for her by making me her mother. Don't you think it is about time you laid all your cards on the table?!" Sam screamed at Dair.
