The answer to the question: Sara may be diagnosed with, is, Separation  anxiety Disorder (SAD).

Explanation:

Separation anxiety disorder is defined as a pathological anxious reaction on the part of a person towards separation from either a place, or a person, that holds meaning to them. Separation anxiety is a normal developmental stage in children till the age of 3, and it will show itself by fear from the child when someone close to them (parents, or other significant people), leave them, or when they have to leave a place that is familiar to them. However, this stage should start resolving itself later in life, and it should definitely not be present in teenagers, or adults. When it does, it becomes a disorder, a pathology, and it manifests itself by the generation of high levels of anxiety and stress in response to separation from places, or people, that make the person feel safe and secure. In the case of Sara, she refuses to leave her mother, to the point that her mother has to remain with her at all times, and everywhere she goes. This is a clear example of SAD.
