Which of the following is a mental disorder characterized by a loss of contact with reality?

  1. Anxiety disorder

  2. Bipolar disorder

  3. Schizophrenia

  4. Attention deficit disorder

The correct answer is: Schizophrenia

Out of all the given options, Schizophrenia is the only mental disorder that is characterized by a loss of contact with reality. Anxiety disorder and attention deficit disorder may involve difficulties with focus and concentration, but do not typically involve a complete detachment from reality. Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder and can involve episodes of distorted perception, but it is not the same as a complete loss of contact with reality. Therefore, C is the best answer.
