Case Study Detail Example.png
In your initial post,
Start by identifying the symptom or diagnosis you searched and the name of the case study you chose.
[(e.g., Mike [Social Anxiety])
Next describe the patients symptoms and the available demographic and historical data.
If new terminology is introduced (i.e., agoraphobia), be sure to explain to your peers what this entails.
Analyze the differences between the diagnosis of the person identified in your case study and a similar illness/diagnosis?
Access the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed.) and search it to support your suggestions. (Be sure to cite.)
If the link above does not provide access, read instructions on How to Access the DSM-5 downloadthrough the Library.
For additional support citing this resource, review the video The DSM-5. (Links to an external site.)
Evaluate how the intensity, duration, and focus support the identified diagnosis. (Support with citations outlined in the University of Arizona Global Campus Writing Centers APA: Citing Within Your Paper (Links to an external site.))
Discuss the available treatments for your case study.
Discuss the implications of a therapist who actively encourages a patient to take medication that has been shown to be effective when the patient has strong objections to the use of a pharmacological approach to treatment.
Finally, develop at least three recommendations for the patient/family for ongoing functioning (social, occupational, and academic, if applicable), associated with your chosen case study.
