Sharon stubbed her toe last weekend and immediately saw a physician, who recommended she do nothing about it and simply live with the discomfort until it healed. Sharon then consulted numerous Internet sites for more information, worried and convinced that her pain was a sign of developing toe cancer.

Which disorder is likely to apply to Sharon's reactions to her minor mishap?

▸ Conversion disorder

▸ Dissociative fugue
