Rationale:
Correct Answer: F: B,C,D,E
Rationale: The correct answer includes choices B, C, D, and E because these social/cultural factors can contribute to the client's mental illness. Lack of family support (
B), financial stress and lack of work/housing (
C), discrimination (
D), and a sense of disconnection and lack of support (E) are all external factors that can significantly impact mental health. These factors can lead to increased stress, feelings of isolation, and exacerbate underlying mental health issues. By documenting these factors, the nurse can better understand the client's situation and provide appropriate support and interventions.
Summary:

Choice A is incorrect as lack of meaning in life is an internal factor and not directly related to social/cultural influences.
-
Choice G is incorrect as it oversimplifies the complex interplay of social/cultural factors on mental health and does not address specific client scenarios.
