Answer to Question 1

C
Trazodone not an SSRI. Trazodone, while not chemically related to tricyclic antidepressants, produces similar effects. However, it is free of the direct cardiac side effects of tricyclics and is most likely safer in an overdose situation.

Answer to Question 2

A
Balancing factors are important in the development and resolution of a crisis and include the precipitating stressor, the patient's perception of the stressor, the nature and strength of a patient's support systems and coping resources, and previous strengths and coping mechanisms. Family, friends, religious leaders, and co-workers are considered part of the patient's support system.
