Yeah, I remember reading something, like 20ish years ago, about a woman from a wealthy family in NYC, that is a wildly paranoid adult, because her mom basically paid everyone to be her friend, planned, and paid for, their social events, and did so until she found out in her mid 20s. It wasn't even because she was unpopular and lonely. This started when she was a toddler. Her mom just wanted complete control of everyone she interacted with, and what they did, as much as she possibly could. When she found out she just mentally imploded.
