Answer 3

It would be C. Because "attention deficit" stands for ADHD or ADD. Clinical Depression is when someone is clinically depressed. Bipolar Disorder is when someone has constant mood swings and can't control them unless they are taking special medication for them. Being schizophrenic is when someone has a long-term mental disorder of a type involving a breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior, leading to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion, and a sense of mental fragmentation. For example, they might think that they hear voices inside of their head when really there isn't a voice it's just them making up one, or someone is obsessed with someone or something and they have some kind of fantasy of being with that person or getting that something they want.
