She feels uneasy when he is not around, worries that her life will get worse if she leaves, has never been employed since marriage because she believes no one would hire her, and relies on her husband to take care of household errands and pay bills. She has bruises from the physical abuse. The description points to a diagnosis of dependent personality disorder. Key features are her uneasiness when her husband is not around, belief that her life would get worse if she leaves, lack of employment because she believes she is unhireable, and reliance on her husband for household tasks and financial support. The physical abuse and bruising help confirm an unhealthy dependent relationship.Borderline personality disorder may show unstable relationships but the fear of abandonment and lack of identity seen in borderline personality disorder do not fit her presentation. Separation anxiety disorder causes distress when separated from attachment figures but is not characterized by the broader maladaptive dependency described. Schizoid and avoidant personality disorders do not match her desire for closeness with her husband.C: Dependent personality disorder
