Question

Sally is well known around town. People refer to her as the town's "favorite crazy person." She seldom interacts with others and always has on some outlandish outfit. When people try to speak to her, she tells them they have to stay at least 6 feet away so they don't exchange any parts of their soul with her. She seems to get along okay in life but has lots of weird ideas. Sally might be diagnosed with which of the following?A. social anxiety disorderB. paranoid personality disorderC. histrionic personality disorderD. schizotypal personality disorder

Answer 1

D. schizotypal personality disorder

Step-by-step explanation:

Schizotypal personality disorder is defined as an individual's inability to establish intimate relationships with others. People who have this disorder have great discomfort in participating in interpersonal relationships, and they exhibit eccentric behavior with distorted ideas and dubious and miraculous truth. Sally has all these symptoms so she is likely to be suffering from schizotypal personality disorder.
