dont get the sub question.but if i understand it the way i think:

if he has the symptoms normally ie generalised social anxiety u treat with an SSRI but since its not among the choices, 2nd option is an MAO Iinhibitor, but if he experiences it while on stage then its a beta blocker .eg propranolol

Answer to the q on the last page .... I think it is substance abuse in men and depression in women.

BSc in Small doses.

A 19-year-old female, who recently moved from her family's home in another state, is hospitalized for attempting suicide by taking an overdose of antidepressant medications. On the third day of her hospital stay, she insists, under threat of a lawsuit, that her medications be stopped and that she be discharged from the hospital so she
"can go home and finish the job." Her sensorium is clear. Her physician should


A. discharge her against medical advice (AMA)

B. honor her request and release her immediately

C. obtain an emergency order of detention

D. release her to go back to her parents' home

E. sedate her

A 22-year-old female college student is brought into the emergency room by the police, who found her walking back and forth across a busy street, talking to herself. The young woman appears to be oriented with respect to person, place, and time. Her first hospital admission was two months ago for a similar condition. During a psychiatric interview, she has difficulty concentrating, and seems to hear voices. A phone call to her sister provides the additional information that the girl dropped out of school three months ago and has been living on the street. Urine toxicology is negative. This patient is most likely exhibiting the signs and symptoms of


A. schizoaffective disorder

B. schizoid personality disorder

C. schizophrenia

D. schizophreniform disorder

E. schizotypal personality disorder

  #1057

Hey I forgot to to ans the second one it's d like sss said did u choose E UNIQUE?
So SSS u are doing pharmac as in ur done with micro and anat? are u sure u are studying and not jumping?gringrin

  #1058

have not started reading micro and practically been on the same page in my anat, well the issue is this since i dont read unless i have a deadline like we had in bsc, then i can as well work with that, maybe doing it with you guys and a deadline will make me open my book ,as long as its making me look at ma books ve accepted that as ma fate and decided to work with it at least at this stage of 1st read;D

  #1059

You are right mytime , I am wrong with choice E . It could be D..... but I am not sure........why not A ????raised eyebrow

I definitely need to go through chapter 12 again sad

SSS , same is the case here . I have never read a subject like I read Beh.Sc. .... I mean so consistently.
