is there a name for this condition? i know its not normal but my brain tells me 'how dare they approach me and talk to me, i cold be deaf, or one of my relatives could have just died, or i dont speak english.'
the next day i realized that this guy was a typical normie but not really threatening at all, but my mind perceived it as that in the moment for some reason.
i still dont know what he wanted, probably a light for his ciggie or something.

Yesterday while I was walking on the beach alone a guy came up to me and asked me to zip up the back of his wetsuit.
I did it without losing my spaghetti and it felt good to know that I look approachable enough for strangers to ask me for help.

Just say "oh, good morning!/day/whatever", its what i do when dealing with old people, i have to walk through a park if i want to have 2 hours of vidya before wageslaving.

Yeah, this. Also depends on the region you're from. Down in the South, old people are really friendly and a few years back when I'd take a few side roads to class, the old people walking would always wave or say something.

old people are easier because they usually pose no threat to me.
but a skinny chad could say 'hi', and turn it into fucking with me, meanwhile his 20 MMA fighter friends are waiting around the corner as backup.

You've got to drop your fear, anon. In all literal sense, stop giving a fuck. If you respond in a certain way and the degenerate jumps you with his buddies, act like a psychotic lunatic and fuck up as many as you can on the way down. Become the "crazy white kid" often discussed throughout niggerdom folklore.
idk but i always change my way home when i see someone i know, so i dont need to talk with him
This condition is called "paranoid schizophrenia."

seems like it would explain a lot, but these aren't 'delusions', and i dont have hallucinations (except for when my epilepsy is flaring up).
i actually have had a lot of threats against my life, and people fucking with me for no reason so i developed a mechanism to avoid it and stay safe.
