How do I stop being paranoid /adv/? My biggest fear is that everyone around me is secretly insane and out to kill me, and I can't stop myself from feeling like that in certain situations.
ex: I'm driving with a friend or family member in a car and we go on a route we usually don't go on, i might ask where we're going and they'll shrug or something, I immediately tense up and put my hands over the seatbelt and car door
I'm not really sure why but it's just terrifying to me

You need to realize that literally nobody is thinking about you that hard. unless you just generally go around doing stupid shit making enemies, I doubt anybody is seriously thinking about intentionally harming you. Its slightly more understandable if you're female but even then it's a stretch to think everybody is out to get you.

Not OP, what if i am female and my classmates always talked behing my back at school? My normie trusted social friend told me that and that shit was intense. I was a teacher's pet or something.
Now I don't deserve attention, but aforementioned meant that i fundamentally aren't accepted by normal people.
Now I have a phobia that i never know how people really think about me. Do they casually make fun of me? I often heard them making up jokes about nerds, when those nerds aren't present.
I am paranoid.

That's not being paranoid, that is being sensible based on the character of said "friends."
Find new ones, forget what they are saying about you or anyone else for that matter.

Yeah, i try to avoid such people and get close only to honest very nice or slightly weird people. So i can be sure they aren't like that.
Do all not extremely kind-hearted normalfags like to make fun of people who don't fit in? Is it some common courtesy? I feel like i pigeonhole them.
I badmouth people i guess, but only with my mom, because we bond over that and she gets offended if i tell her it's bad.

It's just a psychological thing that happens in peer groups. You're not alone and that group is no different than the other million "clicks" doing the same thing.
Google "Asch Experiment" if you truly want a better understanding.

Thanks, i'm in the 25% and can't get a point of fitting in.
Maybe i am just an autist-tier dork.

You remind me of the average woman when talking about men.

A guy tried to kidnap me when I was little I guess, but it's just me being fucking terrified i think
I can't get it out of my head, I'm up some nights with this super irrational thought that everyone is going to go all Purge on me or something
