Lamont Mann · Answer 1

Answer: Relative deprivation.

Explanation:

Eleanor is suffering from relative deprivation. Relative deprivation is a feeling which arises when an individual or group of people experiences lack of diet, lifestyle or basic amenities that are being provided to rest of society.

This feeling is totally relative as the individual or group of people compare themselves with society.
