Now, I know no one but a trained professional would be able to do a hard diagnosis on this situation, but I'm trying to figure it out for my own information. Educated guesses are welcome, since there are those here on PC that have vastly more experience in these matters than do I.

For lack of a better name, let's call the person in question Subject A, or just A for short.

Subject A seems relatively normal at first glance. A little eccentric about body decorations, but nothing that would get a second glance on a college campus. The puzzling part comes on closer inspection. "A" seems to have a very busy and hectic life, to hear them tell it. A child with developmental disabilities, a Significant Other with health problems, etc. Their life is so busy (they say) that they even have minimal time to sleep. Fair enough, I believe that there's those types out there.
Looking even closer, however, inconsistencies start to appear. Different people are told somewhat different versions of events. When advice or solutions are presented for "A"'s problems, "A" always has a reason ready why it can't be done. "A" states that something important was given to another person, only to have that other person not be able to find it when it was needed. I could go on.
At first, I considered that "A" may just be living just a bit inside their own little fantasy world, but "A" seems a bit too "grounded", for lack of a better term. After doing some research here on PC, my opinion has changed to favor more of a Histrionic Personality Disorder combined with a Dependent Personality Disorder. Once again, that's my relatively uneducated opinion.

Any supporting or conflicting opinions are welcome - any information will likely assist me in figuring this person out. It's driving me totally batty trying to it on my own.
I'll answer any questions that I can while revealing as little as possible about this person's identity.

I figure that the worst that it can be is an interesting thought experiment.
Once again all opinios are welcome.

Take care!
