HPI
Sarah is aged 25 years and married. Her primary physician referred her to the emergency department care for a depression diagnosis after a physical examination revealed no organic explanations. Sarah came to PCP for an evaluation after her manager encouraged her to do so due to sobbing bouts at work and impaired work performance. Sarah has been sad every day for the past month and "every minute of the day" for the previous two weeks, according to her. She supports suicidal thoughts but says she would not act on them because of her family and faith. She's having paranoid thoughts and feels her coworkers are conspiring to get her fired. Sarah also claims that about six weeks ago, she went days without sleeping, attempted to write a novel, and acted in a way that was out of character for her. She went to a pub by herself, considered having an extramarital affair, almost left with a male stranger, and passed out. Sarah also claims to have gained weight recently and is dissatisfied with her appearance. Her sadness affects her employment and relationships, and her marriage is suffering. Sarah recalls a previous depressive period in high school, during which she engaged in self-harming behavior. Family history is
crucial because of the mother's illness and suicide seven years ago, the father's alcoholism, and the sister's sadness.
