As somebody who works with people experiencing psychosis, I would guess if most of you walked onto a psychiatric ward and saw how patients were treated and compulsorily forced to take medication (that often does more harm than good), you would see that it makes good fucking sense to be paranoid!

People often develop paranoid delusions because they have actually been persecuted at some time; obviously, their ideas are taken to the extreme though and can become quite bizarre. Suffice it to say that there is now lots of empirical evidence linking these experiences to traumatic events, most notably sustained childhood sexual abuse. As it stands, the mental health system does next to nothing to alleviate suspiciousness or mistrust. After all, patients are forced to take medication, compulsorily detained despite showing no evidence of threat to others, frequently talked about behind their backs and not consulted where important decisions about their life are being made, as well as being denied many rights of ordinary citizens and given a stigmatising diagnosis, the implications of which are (usually) not fully explained to them. It is not surprising that people with a schizoprenia diagnosis (a very shaky, flawed concept in itself) often incorporate mental health professionals into their paranoid thinking. Often, they are not far wrong.
