[quote=Anonymous]You're not clear. Does she have a fixation on privacy and a fear of getting hacked? Or does she get upset that her relatives don't reach out as much as she wants, and she shoots herself in the foot by cutting them off? If the former, it sounds like she has a hyperfocus like some autistic people do. The traditional ASD portrays men as being asocial and fixated on trains/history/etc, but there are some, especially women, who have a desperate need to socialize but don't know how. Also, sometimes, their OCD fixations get in the way. Often, it's germophobia, but sometimes it's a social paranoia like fear of being tracked. Just putting it out there in case it rings a bell with your mother. There is no cure for that except therapy for the OCD/fixation and meds for anxiety. [/quote]
