Question 1 of 5
A client describes flashbacks of a terrifying car crash in which he saw his best friend die. Which disorder should the nurse suspect in this situation?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Panic disorder involves unexpected and repeated episodes of intense fear, often without a specific trigger, and isn’t typically linked to flashbacks. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is characterized by unwanted repeated thoughts (obsessions) and actions (compulsions), not trauma-related flashbacks. PTSD involves re-experiencing a traumatic event through flashbacks and nightmares, directly matching the client’s symptoms of reliving the car crash. Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder involving fear of places or situations that might cause panic, not tied to specific traumatic memories.
