Tina's Story

The goal of therapy is to reduce and control deviant behaviours that cause suicidal thoughts and self-destruction, as well as to focus on the unconscious and underlying meaning behind the disorder. The symptoms that she is experiencing, including, extreme emotions, continuous suicidal thoughts, negative eating habits, and depression can be lessened by professional counselling as it will teach her how to focus on managing emotions by controlling feelings of extreme anger or happiness. The types of therapy that I feel would benefit Diana Miller the most are cognitive-behavioural therapy and dialectical

therapy model that would be used just for Sarah and Robert would be the attachment theory family therapy approach. This model would be used because they both detached themselves from each other, they didn’t use their sibling relationship as a support instead the avoid each other. When working with them outside of residential home it would be important to create a schedule that has flexibility, because it will give them some control and may help to make them more open to the process. An example of this that was effective can be found in Foroughe and Muller’s article about attachment-based intervention strategies.

As seen in Arnie, genetics disabilities can cause difficulties in certain parts of life, such as language, learning and independent living. Indirect genetic effects can also occur due to environmental influences, or “gene-environmental correlations and interactions.” Issues such as depression and generalized anxiety can influence a person to “shape and select” their environment, further influencing other people’s responses to them, or the social environment. While some people are more resistant to psychosocial stresses, others, like Bonnie, are more susceptible, which would explain her depression after her husband’s death and her obesity in response to stress. After her husband’s death, Bonnie not only gave up in life, becoming obese, but also eventually became unable to take care of her own

Although, it may sound nice and cozy, I would not suggest a humanistic therapist, or a client centered therapist (CCT) because there is no actually change to a behavior, all that is going on is talking. Talking could help her immediate feelings, but will not change how she thinks about situations or herself. CCT also has no research that it helps with disorders. Along with no research, a CCT treats almost all disorders the same, thus providing the same treatment for someone who is depressed and someone who has schizophrenic. This is not an effective way to treat a disorder.

Tina can join a community support groups for people that has the same mental problem as Tina. With the support group, the patients can offers different tips and ideas on how to reduce the obsession and compulsive disorder (Halter & Vacarolis, 2014).

She also has a family history of depression. Her marriege is unhealthy and she reported that she thought of asking for a divorce. Furthermore, she was frightened of her father who had abusive tendencies towards

Paulette Jones has been experiencing many changes consistently with her health, which has affected her outlook on life. Paulette is constantly depress and worries if people accept her for who she is because her physical appearance has changed. The person she once was has disappeared. It is very rare that I get to see her happy, outgoing, spontaneous, and adventurous. She has recently visited here in Ga, and many of times I would walk pass and see her looking in the mirror at herself crying. Sometimes she appear happy, however deep down inside I can see her suffering as she wonders why she is on an endless downward spiral of life. It is very hard to look and hear my niece in such disarray on a continuous

history of depression, ADHD, substance abuse and anxiety disorder on both sides of her family.

(Palmer, 2013). However, there are ethical problems with this research, as scientists debate whether it even is possible to find a gene linked to depression and what will motivate a person to undertake these predictive tests; and the consequences of the knowing the results. Although there may be some benefit in early treatment and prevention, such knowledge could potentially impact negatively on a person’s identity. (Palmer, 2013). This could lead to the individual to become more depressed and ashamed of their genes. I personally think that depression is genetically linked as I have seen some evidence in my own family. It is possible that my grandma might have had a depressive illness during her life but never professionally identified with the condition. Hypothetically if she did possess a liable gene, that would mean she also passed it on to her 5 children. This would include my aunty Aileen who was identified with depression and sought treatment from a psychologist; however this failed and committed suicide in early 2014. This alone does not mean that depression is purely genetic, as there are other factors in her life could have encouraged the gene to be more active than those in her

Tina is facing the ethical issue that she has to be doing the job in a way that is not professionally and ethically sound. For example, she initiated the job with the aim that she would learn from the tasks under the job. However, in practice the situation is very different. In this scenario, the solution has been presented in the following based on appropriate actions and words Tina should use in the situation.

The start of what leads a person to suicide does not have anything to do with the person’s present life experiences, but with their early childhood experiences. This is because the view of others, outside family and friends, has no contribution to the pain that causes suicide and depression. Depression can include self-pity, shame, envy, and grandiosity. All of these things play a role in depression one way or another. Depressed people are usually subject to desire and grandiose ideation.

Tanya’s aunt, who she lives with stated that she Tanya has a history past history of bipolar and refuses to take medication. She stated that Tanya has a history of masturbation, bizarre behaviors such as touching her own feces, screaming when no one else is around, and refusing to bathe for the past

Her treatment would consist of medications and psychosocial therapy. Hospitalization may be necessary to make sure she has safety,

Only in the past two decades, have depression and suicide been taken seriously. Depression is an illness that involves the body, mood and thoughts. Depression affects the way a person eats and sleeps, feels about themselves, and the way they think of the things around them. It comes as no surprise to discover that adolescent depression is strongly linked to teen suicide. Adolescent suicide is now responsible for more deaths
