Separation anxiety disorder in adulthood is associated with high levels of disability. Research and clinical data indicate that overlooking the diagnosis of adult separation anxiety disorder may result in substantial costs in the form of disability and suffering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOver the last decades, the Psychiatry School of Pisa, in the person of \u003cb\u003eDirector Giovanni B.
