case study 2

Kylie, a 24-year-old female patient, comes to your office for a refill of her allergy medication. Before going into the room, you note that her Patient Health Questionnaire – Depression (PHQ-9) score is 20, and that she is not currently on any medication for depression. When you enter the room, you notice that Kylie is easily startled, and she is sitting in the corner of the room very close to the wall.

case study

Mildred is a 45-year-old married female with three children. She presents to the clinic with complaints of fatigue and difficulty sleeping. She states she wants to get a good night’s sleep and is requesting a prescription to help her sleep. Mildred tells you she is awake off and on during the night, frequently thinking about her husband’s recent layoff from construction work and the effect this is having on the family. She lies down often during the day and has been so fatigued that she took some time off from work during the last two weeks. She is tearful at times during the visit and looks sad and anxious. On further discussion, she says she feels overwhelmed, helpless, and anxious. She tells you about an episode where she felt her heart beating rapidly, had difficulty catching her breath, felt she was going to have a heart attack, and became frightened until her husband was able to help calm her down. She is not eating as much as usual, and when she reads the newspaper, she does not remember what she has read.
