More instrustions for assignment •    Add impulse control and judgment under mental status, example within normal limits, do they have good judgment?
•    Add after dx, criteria and discussion: this is where we talk about the case, because the person is depressed but has a good support system the treatment will be this..because they are really isolated we will do this.. or this is the dx we don’t have enough information yet to get a plan we are going to do it by getting testing, having client go to psychiatrist, see if client is willing to do family therapy. Im suggesting CBT because with depression there is so much around self talk.
