You find him understandable when he talks, but sometimes hard to follow. His clothes are messy and don't match. Tom tells you not to tell anyone about his power, because he knows that other people don't like him because they are jealous and they would hurt him if they could. The best diagnosis for Tom is
  a. borderline personality disorder.
  b. paranoid personality disorder.

  d. schizoid personality disorder.
