Both paranoia and obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD) are the possible disorders that Melanie might have. Paranoia int terms of how she pictures everyday scenarios in her reality that are not really happening (i.e. how she might trip going to the grocery store, or leaving the oven on because something might happen); OCD in terms of creating a habit of locking her door five times just to secure herself from the fears she is feeling/thinking.
