One doctor says, based on reports of her bizarre and obsessive behavior, she may have Erotomania - a diagnosed delusional disorder that could become dangerous and needs to be taken 'very, very seriously.'
SAN FRANCISCO -- A restraining order has been filed against a Virginia woman accused of stalking Apple CEO Tim Cook.
The court papers showed photographs of guns, ammo, and copies of emails apparently sent by the woman.RELATED:"Under these circumstances, given what we're hearing in the news regarding who this person is and how they're doing it- this sounds like a certain kind of stalking that's often called Erotomania," Santa Clara University Psychology Professor Dr. Thomas Plante told ABC7 News.
"The good news is that there's very few people that do this, it's less than half of 1%," Plante continued."But the bad news is that those people can be quite serious. And it has to be taken very, very seriously."
