Too little dopamine causes paranodia .The hippocamus attachs meanings to the world.It cannot work without dopamine.When dopamine levels get too high the brain cells shut off the release of dopamine and you become paranoid.Say someone says hello to you and you wounder what that sob meant by that ,all day.You hear a knock on the door and freak out.It is strange,but lack of dopamine is the problem.The release of dopamine is shut down because of the high levels.
