26. Cathy is worried about her mental health. She visits Dr. Henderson, a psychiatrist, to seek treatment for her condition. When Dr. Henderson asks her questions about herself, Cathy reveals that she is unhappy and feels worthless most of the time. She does not eat or sleep well and has even contemplated suicide. Dr. Henderson also learns that Cathy has been experiencing these distressing symptoms for less than 1 month. Dr. Henderson is likely to diagnose Cathy with persistent depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, or dissociative identity disorder. 27. Children who experience trauma may demonstrate their posttraumatic stress differently from adults.
