Overall, according to the demographics and IPIP-NEO assessment, Jaclyn seems to be a very positive, hard-working, and diligent person who can go far with her life.

This experience was educational and I was able to learn how to tailor questions that follow specific presentation complaints during the history intake process. Upon initial presentation, and discussion of her symptoms, it became evident that the questions needed to be more specifically related to the frequency of her disturbance, her diet, mood, social history, and activity level.

This encounter was exciting to diagnosis because the diagnosis came from the clinical findings from the exam. The historical flow was intuitive and helped differentiate the diagnosis. Lab tests were not necessarily helpful to diagnose, although important to rule out other potential differentials. Both anxiety and depression were found to be present
