Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Emphasizing the recovery concept of hope will support the person who has had multiple episodes and is frustrated with the impact of several episodes. Recovery is promoted through engaging the client in partnership and empowering the person to make decisions in setting overall goals of care. Shared decision making has been shown to improve outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C, D, E
Indicators of possible mania include reading several books or newspapers at once, talking faster than usual, feeling irritable, and being hungry all the time. Avoiding people and sleeping more than usual would suggest depression.
