Paranoporeia is a neologism that refers to the terrifying feeling that someone is watching you through holes or hiding, despite the fact that no one is present. This sensation is frequently described as sudden and intense, resulting in feelings of paranoia, exposure, and vulnerability. It may be linked to anxiety, stress, trauma, or other mental health issues. Although there is no specific treatment for paranoia, therapy or medication may be recommended to help manage the underlying causes of this sensation.
