[QUOTE="nlj, post: 658510, member: 17650"] Me too! My son doesn't have any diagnosed mental illness and he does not take drugs other than smoking pot. He has dropped out of society and lives rough through choice. He is obsessed with environmental issues and is an activist. He is also obsessed with government control and corruption etc and has strong anarchic political views. I just wanted to let you know that my son has this paranoia about government monitoring of everything he says and does. He buried his mobile phone in the forest because he was convinced that the government was spying on him through it. He won't use the internet because he says everything is monitored. He has also told me to be careful because he says I'm also being watched because I'm his mother. I am in contact with other mothers of activist/anarchist sons and daughters. They ALL have this obsession with government control and monitoring and are paranoid that all their thoughts and actions are being watched. (There may be some truth in this I suppose. Do we really know?). P.S. I would send him the books about quantum physics, consciousness and ancient wisdom. That sounds great! I would be worried if he wanted you to send him books about guns or porn, but don't see anything wrong or strange in his book choices. (?) You have to let him live his own life and make his own choices anyway. You have to try and accept him as he is and see where life takes him. He's not a child for you to 'fix' his problems or control how he should be living or what books he should be reading. You'll get loads of brilliant advice and support on this site. It helped me hugely and still does. x [/QUOTE]
