, Question 4
Alexa is a 27-year-old female who has come to group therapy while she is in the city jail. She was arrested for
vagrancy because she was sleeping in her car in a parking lot at a local shopping center. She could not post bail, so
she is sentenced to 14 days in jail. During group, she contributes that none of this is her fault. Her mother is totally
evil because she would not let Alexa stay in the family home. She has some other family. but they are all jerks
because they won’t help her. Alexa’s friend Melanie is the absolute best person in the world, but she can’t help
because her boss fired her for no reason. Alexa has a history of arrests for buying illegal drugs and prostitution. The
last time she was in jail, her sentence was extended for 30 days because she got into a fight with another inmate and
beat her up so badly she had to be admitted to the hospital for 6 days. The PMHNP considers which of the following
personality disorders?

Histrionic

Narcissistic

Borderline

Schizoid




Question 5
Anne is a 32-year-old female who presented to care after a random drug screening at work was positive for cocaine.
She was initially resistant to therapy, maintaining that her use is not a problem and she could stop at any time. Upon
further discussion in session, it appears that she uses cocaine every day at work, sometimes 2–3 times, other days
more. She also uses it occasionally at home and most weekends. During her third session, she admitted that it is a
financial burden, and she basically cannot afford any other form of recreation. She understands that if she uses again
she will lose her job, and she admits that she loves her job and that cocaine is not worth losing it. When counseling
her about cessation strategies, the PMHNP advises all the following except:

The physiologic symptoms of withdrawal may require a short-term hospitalization

Unlike other substances of abuse, there are no medications to help reduce the intensity of withdrawal

She will need to be monitored for depression

Overcoming the intense craving for cocaine is the biggest issue




 Question 6

Clare’s history of personal relationships is characterized by complete intolerance of being alone. Whether it is an

, intimate-partner relationship or a close friend, Clare appears to always need someone in her life. She had a live-
in boyfriend of 3 years, and while they were together, he took care of everything. The PMHNP expects all of the
following to be additional features of Clare’s history except:

Has disproportionate anger toward an abusive spouse




Question 7
The PMHNP is on call at the local county correctional facility. He is asked to evaluate M.S., a 21-year-old male who
was just arrested following an altercation at a local bar. M.S. has never been incarcerated before and apparently has
no psychiatric or medical history available. His toxicology screen was negative for alcohol or any drugs of abuse.
His mother says that he has in the past had some occasions when he got kind of agitated, but this is the first time it’s
been a problem. Reportedly some people from his office were at the bar celebrating a birthday, and before anyone
knew what happened an argument escalated into M.S. getting very loud, yelling, and acting ―crazy‖ before he
punched a coworker and started breaking bottles. When considering a manic or hypomanic episode, the PMHNP
expects that his speech would most likely be:

Stuttered

Increased

Childlike

Confused




Question 8
Fletcher is a 29-year-old male referred for court-ordered counseling. He has a long history of repeated offenses
including DUI, domestic violence, battery, and other violent acts that fortunately have not yet caused any serious
