A client with AIDS tells the nurse, My recent life has been a series of losses. I've lost my job and my income, as well as my identity as a prominent business leader. What's next? What can the nurse offer that will facilitate adaptive coping?
1. I can see that you're feeling discouraged and hopeless.
2. I will help you plan to live as normally as possible in the months ahead.
3. Perhaps it would be wise to restrict your contacts to those who know of your illness.
4. If you wish, I can help you investigate to see if you have been the victim of dis-crimination.

2. External locus of control
3. Choice of religion
4. Number of significant others
