Welcome to to the National Paranoia Network Website
The Paranoia Network was originally launched in 2004.
It is run by Peter Bullimore, Kate Crawford and Shaun Hunt, the organisation aims to raise awareness of how disabling paranoia can be and to breakdown social taboos.
The Network runs training sessions globally to professional bodies and all interested parties on how to understand a person’s paranoia and help them make sense of it.
The first Paranoia Network in Australia was launched on the 5th April in Perth Australia following the work of the Paranoia Network in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Brisbane and Cairns.

Peter is a voice hearer who spent ten years as a psychiatric patient enduring many bouts of severe paranoia. Through learning holistic approaches and with support of the Hearing Voices Network he was able to reclaim his life from the system.
Kate started hearing voices aged four. She would see visions of a man and woman in period clothing and also a little girl but they never spoke.
After her mum died she was placed in children’s homes. In later years she became homeless.

Shaun has many years experience of using psychiatric services and has had his own personal battles with experiences such as hearing voices and paranoia.
He has now recovered his life and learnt how to manage his experiences, even during the dark times.
