Chronic/terminal illness: Case study
analysis




Introduction
I will pick a person with chronic or terminal diseases of concern
to me for this essay. I will analyse and write a case study which
describes the role of psychology in understanding the chosen
chronic or terminal condition. I will also address the role of
psychology for chronic/terminal disease management.

Diagnosis of bipolar disorders:
Physical exam which means that Gary’s Diagnosis surprises
the parents of the child greatly, but they understand that Gary
has early issues with anxiety during pre-adolescence and
isolation and depression during his adolescent years. His
parents look forward to care if appropriate.
Psychiatric assessment is when Gary’s doctor had referred
him to a psychiatrist, Whose thinking, emotion, and behavioural
habits are going to speak with him. In this scenario Gary must
perform a self-assessment or psychiatric test. With approval to
share input about Gary's symptoms for example, family
members or near associates may be approached to support the
doctor get the best medication sooner. According to Chil
Psychol (new York, 2009) Incorrect diagnosis has serious
implications because antidepression may cause iatrogenic
mania without a mood-stabilizing therapy.
According to (Chil Psychol, 2009) Mood charting means
that Gary could be required to report his moods, his sleep
habits or other aspects every day that may lead to evaluation
and care accurately. Having shifted his major from engineering
to philosophy, this had reduced his sleep to a lesser degree, as
he spent more time in discussions with his friends on the
essence of truth.
According to (NHS, 2014) psychiatrics will also check if a person
has a medical condition, such as an underactive thyroid or an
overactive thyroid, based on the effects of an patient. Gary is
depressive so he will frequently see his Doctor for a physical
wellbeing test. Therefore, underactive thyroid implies weight
gain, constipation, fatigue, slow motion and feelings. Gary has
no other symptoms of sadness, of he wants daily physical
health tests.
