What could be wrong with this lady?

Question

I just want to know what kind of mental disorders or whatever would make someone act this way. She stays in the house everyday. Hasn't left it for 5 years as far as I know. When she hears people outside near her house, which is also connected to four other houses, she just sits there and watches. She screams swears out the window, and tells people to get away, but her voice is weird. It's not clear, but you can still tell what she's saying sort of. Also, her hair is very long, and gray I think. She doesn't take care of herself from what I can see. I don't know how old she is. Maybe she's like in her 40's or 50's. She lives with her mom, sister, and brother. Not to be mean, but she's very scary looking, and creepy.

Answer 1

She might have social phobia or agraphobia.

I don't go out the house much because of social phobia, I don't shout out the window or anything but I tend to just keep to myself and hope no-one notices me. I do get paranoid when outside, even just sitting in the garden I feel very aware of the people in the houses around me.

When I first read your question, I got really paranoid because I don't go out the house and live in a block of four houses.... but I'm in my late 20's and live alone.....you are not in the UK are you? : /

Answer 2

Could be anything from Alzheimer's to schizophrenia. You can't really judge without knowing her.

Answer 3

WOW GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!
