Question 1 of 5
A nurse in an outpatient setting is caring for a client. The client presents with feelings of anxiety and depression. They recently started smoking marijuana as that is what their "new friends do all the time". They admit to using laxatives frequently and unning for 1 hr after eating a very large meal, which happens at least 9 times a week. They were recently arrested for stealing make-up from a local department store and acknowledge that this "is the first time I was caught". Complete the diagram by specifying what condition the client is most likely experiencing, 2 actions the nurse should take to address that condition, and 2 parameters the nurse should monitor to assess the client's progress.
Correct Answer: B
