Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Antisocial personality disorder is a pattern of irresponsible, exploitive, and guiltless behavior with tendency to fail to conform to the law and exploit and manipulate others for personal gain.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The patient expresses the desire to end her life and verbalizes that there is a method for ending her life. This would be the highest risk that would need immediate action because the patient has motivation and the means to commit suicide.
