Dysfunction

Explanation:

A dysfunctional mental disorder occurs when an individual starts to behave in an unusual and abnormal way as a result of stress or mental impairment. The pattern of thought, emotion and behavior will no longer be in line with his normal way of life as deviation from normal social life and ideal mental health becomes obvious.

Jayden's failure to do his regular job again and even cordially interact with his clients are evidences that he is going through a dysfunctional mental disorder as a result of the complicated project he is handling.
