Yes, Martin is displaying symptoms of a dissociative fugue (Option C). A dissociative fugue is a type of dissociative disorder characterized by sudden, unexpected travel or wandering away from home, along with confusion about one's personal identity or assumption of a new identity. Martin's confusion about his location, not recognizing the people around him, and wondering about the whereabouts of his wife and children align with the symptoms of a dissociative fugue. It is important to note that this diagnosis should be confirmed by a mental health professional.
