Look at Maine for example, he obviously has some developmental disorders and mild mental instability (made worse by Sigma). Wyoming is likely a more conventional sufferer of ASPD (rather than Ted Bundy, think Son of Sam) withdrawn, cold, not serious about apologies and caring about their own short term gain and protection over that of those around him. York is obviously not the best infiltration artist, Carolina is the directors daughter. If anything,it appears that they picked the freelancers as the top 50 of the soldiers they received, the rest becoming simulation soldiers, in a situation like that, it isn't far fetched to see that a few of the people suffer from some disorders or another (heck, even C.T. could have BPD or depression, though lack of screen time and only two events that may mildly support this theory I cant actually claim that with any certainty) Good point there i mean between Maine with his Autism and perhaps his questionable status as a high functioning sociopath and Wyoming's sadism and Wash's PTSD the Freelancers weren't the most stable group

That's just spectulation. I believe it was confirmed in the RvB book Wash was a little bit of a sociopath, using his goofy behaviour as almost a mask to cover his temper.
