CC: The individual expresses a sense of personal inadequacy and a desire to isolate oneself from social interactions.

A 38-year-old Caucasian woman complains of persistent negative mood, fatigue, and difficulty rising from bed. The Patient reports doing nothing and having no desire to interact with others. She reports that she has felt this way for the past two months and that it began immediately after the passing of a family member. The Patient is diagnosed with depression and anxiety disorder and started on sertraline 25mg once daily, with a follow-up in two weeks. As a result, she felt the need to seek professional assistance.

Assessment:What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three (3) possible diagnoses. List them from highest to lowest priority. What was your primary diagnosis, and why?

Reflection notes:What would you do differently in a similar patient evaluation? Reflect on one social determinant of health according to HealthyPeople 2030 (you will need to research) as applied to this case in the realm of psychiatry and mental health. As a future advanced provider, what are one health promotion activity and one patient education considerations for this patient for improving health disparities and inequities in the realm of psychiatry and mental health? Demonstrate your critical thinking.
