Answer to Question 1

C
Often, patients with conversion disorder think that their symptom makes them interesting and that they are not interesting as persons. The nurse should matter-of-factly accept the symptom without focusing on it and direct attention to the person as an individual. Two distracters refer to care of a patient with OCD and care of a patient with PTSD.

Answer to Question 2

B
Buspirone, which has a slow onset of action, is effective in relieving anxiety and is suitable for long-term use, because dependence does not develop. Two advantages are that it has no additive effect with alcohol and it is not sedating. The other options are incorrect.
