Module 4 Case Study Assignment

Q Module 4Case Study Assignment Case Study Analysis In this assignment, you will review two possible cases for analysis. Choose one, and answer the questions that follow the cases. There are several key things to keep in mind: The title of the assignment does not necessarily capture an accurate diagnosis of the situation or cluster of symptoms. These are incomplete situations and you may decide to reference a different disorder in the DSM-5 than the one in the title or mentioned in the situation. This is to reflect the reality of the presentation of disorders in a real clinical setting. Most clients and patients enter a clinical setting with a general idea or label/name for what they are experiencing. It may be clinically relevant or may be clinically incorrect. With clinical information being almost immediately accessible due to the Internet and other forms of education (e.g., social media), much of a clinical interview requires corrective teaching or curious investigation about what the words being used actually represent and symbolize in behavioral presentation and sensation. This may be confusing or feel clear cut, depending on the situation and your own learning. The assignment is not to diagnose but to identify symptoms and behaviors that may lead to a diagnosis. Diagnosis is beyond your current level of learning and beyond your ethical capacity as a student without a license and without operating under someone with a license. Instead, we will be identifying behaviors or possible symptoms, not disorders, in these activities. Cases for Analysis Case #1: Anorexia Case #2: Alcohol Use Disorder Questions to Answer: • What are your initial thoughts and what are follow up questions that you would ask to clarify the diagnostic picture? • What are ethical considerations that are relevant to the case and might impact the situation identified? • What are the observable markers, as defined by the DSM-5, that are found in the presented information? Answer each question as completely as possible. Your submission should conform to APA guidelines in the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.). Include at least 2 scholarly references in addition to the course textbook. The CSU Global Library is a good place to find these references.

My initial thoughts in this case of alcohol use disorder are that whenever there is a case of alcohol abuse it usually takes time and resilience to cope up. This problem is not resolved in a short time. Most often people who are addicted to alcohol remain in denial about the issue. My follow up questions will be for both Carl and his wife (later) Questions for Carl would be- 1) Did you have any information about her drinking habits from the past? 2) Does she only drink wine or has affliction for any other type of drinks? 3) Have you observed any violent behavior from her after drinking? 4) Has she put the children into any dangerous situation after the drinking phase? 5) Have you ever confronted her about this issue? What did she say?
