Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, D, E
Bereavement of family members for those who committed suicide seems to differ from bereavement related to other sudden deaths. Common experiences during the bereavement process of family members who committed suicide include stigmatization, shame, guilt, and a sense of rejection. The bereaved person may experience self-blame for contributing to the family member's death. Acceptance and disgust are least likely.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Crisis is a time-limited event (usually no more than 46 weeks) that triggers adaptive or nonadaptive responses to maturational, situational, or traumatic experiences. By definition, there is no such thing as a chronic crisis. People who live in constant turmoil are not in crisis but in chaos. Although the feelings associated with a crisis are similar, the precipitating event and circumstances are unusual or rare, perceived as a threat and specific to the individual.
