My mom's family has AS traits and also a lot of paranoia and magical thinking.

With AS, anxiety can develop into OCD where you would have that type of thing, but not sure if it would be to that extent.

Have you checked out multicomplex development disorder?

the only paranoias i have are as follows:

1) my friends dont like me or will start to dislike me. - which after talking to my friends about this one slapped me and sed 'ali ur an idiot' haha. they all say they love me and if they havent heard from me for a whole day they contact me to make sure i'm ok.

2) something will happen to my friends like something bad- if u met my friends u wud understand haha. I protect them so much.

3) after watching jurassic park I get scared that a velosoraptor or t-rex will get me if i go outside. - hey i live near some scary woods and if i faced a t-rex i wud be fine coz my fear mechanism ust freezes me but if i faced a pack of velosoraptors i wud be screwed coz they'd eat me.

No, but I've just looked it up. Interesting, I'm going to look more into it but there doesn't seem to be much information on it.

It's usual for a child to have delusions I think ? Everyone I know had some silly fears because of shadows, dark, etc...
I don't know if it's normal once youve grown up though.
