Answer to Question 1

C
Relapse symptoms are congruent with early symptoms of a depressive episode. They include decreased libido, loss of pleasure, and lack of energy. Sleeping less, experiencing racing thoughts, experiencing aggression, and having boundless energy suggest impending mania. Diarrhea, thirst, and tremor relate to lithium side effects.

Answer to Question 2

C
Sexual masochism is sexual pleasure derived from being humiliated, beaten, or otherwise made to suffer. The distracters refer to fetishism, sexual sadism, and frotteurism.
