Default Random paragraphs aligned "in mirror"

Hi all,

I am trying to finish writing this paper but some random paragraphs align "in mirror". I have tried selecting more paragraphs (including the one that is mirror aligned) and then justify, left align, right align and still one paragraphs aligns the opposite way as to the others (see attached picture. The below paragraph behaves normally). Any ideas why this is happening? Freaking frustrating.
Thank you.

OK. Found it (with the help of a colleague).
Cut all the paragraph that was aligning "in mirror" and pasted it in notepad, then in the word document kept deleting all characters/empty lines until the next paragraph is reached. Then, copy from notepad your previously pasted paragraph and in word, right click where you want to insert the paragraph, go paste special and there use the option with "unformatted text".
Thank you super complex formatting mechanisms of word. Hope this helps anyone having the same issue.

Empty lines between paragraphs shouldn't even be there. Use styles to add space between paragraphs.
