Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: When the nurseclient relationship achieves facilitative intimacy, the relationship moves from the social realm to addressing meaningful areas of concern for the client. Social superficiality usually occurs at the beginning of a relationship. Self-disclosure occurs when the individuals share information about themselves. Social relationships are characterized by interdependence; in the nurseclient relationship, the desire is to move the client toward independence.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Periods of depression are times when the risk of relapse is very high. Melancholy and despair may occur from time to time as a natural part of recovery, but depression or other mental illnesses are not expected outcomes of recovery.
