The correct answer is A. Dependent personality disorder

Explanation:

In psychology, a personality disorder refers to a type of mental disorder that commonly involves persistent and nocive behaviors and thoughts. This includes narcissistic personality disorder that implies thoughts and behaviors that are self-centered; borderline personality disorder that involves changing moods, actions, thoughts and self-image; avoidant personality disorder that involves social anxiety and inhibition; and dependent personality disorder that occurs when individuals depend on other people to meet certain emotional needs, because of this, individuals with this disorder experience anxiety when they are asked to act autonomously and rely on others to make decisions and feel confident.

Considering this, Jerry is likely to be diagnosed with a dependent personality disorder because he needs from others to make basic decisions, lacks self-confidence and experiences anxiety or fear if he does not rely on others, which is part of this disorder.
