Stalking (obsessive pursuit).
Stalking behaviour has long been recognized as causing great distress and prolonged psychological problems in many victims. Individuals subjected to stalking often feel powerless and helpless in the face of such unwelcome intrusions into their daily lives. There now seems to be a greater awareness and understanding of the phenomenon which, in turn, may encourage individuals affected to seek help.
