Question

Connie has a condom hidden under her dorm mattress. every morning, she lifts the mattress to confirm that it is still there. if connie ever neglects to check the condom, she gets more anxious as the day progresses. this behavior describes _____ disorder

Answer 1

This kind of behavior is considered Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. The fact that she needs reassurance that the condom is still under the mattress and that no doing so makes her nervous is why. It is the same as someone who has to check the lights multiple times or wash their hands multiple times.
