Just an opinion type question! Please answer! If a person/child was very sheltered and had over-protective parents. What kind of mental illnesses would they have?
Hmm ..great question. I can't really think of any mental illnesses, but phobia's defenitely. Like, a phobia of people, or a phobia of going outside ..tha kind of stuff. ^^ Hope that helped.
Depression, anxiety, low self-esteem... and my brain went dead but that's basic... How do I know? I suffer from it because of this
Overprotective parents can cause a lot more than most people think, they can cause psychological disorders such as, Social Isolation/ Social Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, and a huge one in children and adults in todays society is Dependent Personality Disorder. These aren't big psychological disorders, but overprotective parents can also cause, Anger, Rebellion, Eating Disorders, Low Self-Esteem, Emotional Withdraw, and Delayed Spiritual growth. Children with Overprotective parents also tend to, Be Bullied or Picked On, Fall Behind in school, and be the "problem children" for teachers. -Sorry I know a lot about Psychological disorders, for I have studied them because I, myself have Bipolar Disorder.
@Aliceinw0nderland Yeap pretty much just listed everything I have because of over protective parents... Except Bipolar.
