Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale: Family and friends have their own perspectives through which they filter events. The sources of the information to be included in the psychiatric history and the source's relationship to the client should always be clearly indicated. Information given by these collateral sources should be reviewed and understood in terms of that relationship.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The client needs to understand that depression is associated with neurotransmitter changes in the brain. There is no indication that the client has problems with sleep, energy levels, or thinking.
