Dear Dr,
I have a younger sister, she is in her 30's.My sister is behaving eccentric. We noticed that for past 1 yr she has developed a habit of talking to herself, sometimes she laughs alone. She is been a pampered child , my parent always gave her options and consented to her demands.e.g. she has never travelled by a public bus, she changed her schools 3-4 times because she didnot like the school. We have been trying to find a match for her, however whenever we get a proposal she finds some faults sometimes as stupid as having a moustache and rejects the proposal. We have never tried to pressurize her for marriage , she says she wants to get married but when a proposal comes up , she finds an excuse to refuse it. She knows that her parents have left her money to last for lifetime so she doesnot work, has no friends. She throws tantrums, fights if anything goes against her wish. We are worried about her behaviour because off late she has started threatening my mother if my mother says anything against her wish, she abuses my mother verbally. We feel that she needs counselling however we fear that she would be violent if mention to her about vising a counsellor. Please suggest a solution and help us. Thank you
