When John went to the laundromat, he saw a woman laughing out loud, talking to herself, and ritualistically washing her clothes in a very strange manner. The woman would start the machine, but when it filled with water she would stop it in mid-cycle and wash her clothes by hand, using the water and detergent from the washing machine. When John stared at her in disbelief, she became very hostile, shouting, "What's the matter with you? You young people just can't leave me alone, can you? Well, you're not going to get me because I know about things that you don't! Now leave me alone!" The woman is most probably suffering from ________.
A) split personality
B) paranoid schizophrenia
