previously found that it motivated her. Over the last year, her symptoms

was urged by her employer to seek therapy. Ms. Z has arrived late to
work on several occasions because of oversleeping. She also has
difficulty in getting out of bed stating, “It’s difficult to walk; it’s like my
legs weigh a ton.” She feels fatigued during the day despite spending
over 12 hours in bed and is concerned that she might be suffering from
a serious medical condition. She denies any significant changes in
appetite or weight since these symptoms began.
Ms. Z reports that, although she has not missed workdays, she
has difficulty concentrating and has become tearful in front of clients
while worrying about not finding a significant other. She feels
tremendous guilt over “not being good enough to get married,” and says
that her close friends are concerned because she has been spending her
weekends in bed and not answering their calls. Although during your
evaluation Ms. Z appeared tearful, she brightened up when talking about
her newborn nephew and her plans of visiting a college friend next
summer. Ms. Z denied suicidal ideation.

Psychiatric Case
After studying Module 6: Lecture Materials & Resources, discuss the following
Case Study A 74-year-old African American woman, Ms. Richardson, was brought to
the hospital emergency room by the police. She is unkempt, dirty, and
foul-smelling. She does not look at the interviewer and is apparently
confused and unresponsive to most of his questions. She knows her
name and address, but not the day of the month. She is unable to
describe the events that led to her admission.
The police reported that they were called by neighbors because Ms.
Richardson had been wandering around the neighborhood and not
taking care of herself. The medical center mobile crisis unit went to her
house twice but could not get in and presumed she was not home.
Finally, the police came and broke into the apartment, where they were
met by a snarling German shepherd. They shot the dog with a
tranquilizing gun and then found Ms. Richardson hiding in the corner,
wearing nothing but a bra. The apartment was filthy, the floor littered
with dog feces. The police found a gun, which they took into custody.
The following day, while Ms. Richardson was awaiting transfer to a
medical unit for treatment of her out-of-control diabetes, the psychiatric
provider attempted to interview her. Her facial expression was still
mostly unresponsive, and she still didn’t know the month and couldn’t
say what hospital she was in. She reported that the neighbors had
called the police because she was “sick,” and indeed she had felt sick
and weak, with pains in her shoulder; in addition, she had not eaten for 3
days. She remembered that the police had shot her dog with a
tranquilizer and said the dog was now in “the shop” and would be
returned to her when she got home. She refused to give the name of a
neighbor who was a friend, saying, “he’s got enough troubles of his
own.” She denied ever being in a psychiatric hospital or hearing voices
but acknowledged that she had at one point seen a psychiatrist “near
downtown” because she couldn’t sleep. He had prescribed medication
that was too strong, so she didn’t take it. She didn’t remember the
name, so the interviewer asked if it was Thorazine. She said no, it was
“allal.” ‘Haldol?”, ask the interviewer. She nodded.
The interviewer was convinced that was the drug, but other observers
thought she might have said yes to anything that sounded remotely like
it, such as “Elavil.” When asked about the gun, she denied, with some
annoyance, that it was real and said it was a toy gun that had been
still feeling weak and sick, complained of pain in her shoulder, and
apparently had trouble swallowing. She did manage to smile as the
team left her bedside.

Schizophrenia Spectrum Case
After studying Module 7: Lecture Materials & Resources, discuss the following:
Case
Study
Mr. T is a 21-year-old man who is brought to the ER by his mother after
he began talking about “aliens” who were trying to steal his soul. Mr. T
reports that aliens left messages for him by arranging sticks outside his
home and sometimes send thoughts into his mind.
On exam, he is guarded and often stops talking while in the middle
of expressing a thought. Mr. T appears anxious and frequently scans the
room for aliens, which he thinks may have followed him to the hospital.
He denies any plan to harm himself but admits that the
aliens sometimes want him to throw himself in front of a car, “as this
will change the systems that belong under us.”
The patient’s mother reports that he began expressing these ideas a few
months ago, but that they have become more severe in the last
few weeks. She reports that during the past year, he has become
isolated from his peers, frequently talks to himself, and has stopped
going to community college. He has also spent most of his time reading
science fiction books and creating devices that will prevent aliens from
hurting him. She reports that she is concerned because the patient’s
father, who left while the patient was a child, exhibited similar symptoms
many years ago and has spent most of his life in a psychiatric hospital.
