This is the weirdest problem in my book

5. Stacey is a cashier at a local hardware store. She always needs things to be in the proper place, like the screw shelfs near the registers. She always jumps from one idea to another when talking with fellow employees, and she also asks personal sexual questions about other employees. She also believes other people are out "to get her". What disorders can you infer tfrom this brief passage that Stacey has. 3 answers are acceptable here

    OCD - needs things to be in their place

    ADHD - jumping from one idea to another

    Bipolar disorder - manic stage often exhibits paranoia and sexual inappropriateness

    The out to get her bit sounds like anxiety or it may be bracketed under the OCD, since OCD is well known for the symptoms of anxiety-- which causes paranoia. The jumping from topic to topic could be add or something similar unless it's supposed to be tied in with the sexual questions thing, and I don't know about that.

    So OCD ADHD and something for the sexual questions, maybe aspergers.

    possibly paranoia for the "people out to get her" not completely sure on the other one though.
