Answer to Question 1

Answer: 2
Explanation: Individuals must come to their own explanations and answer the question Why? The theme of the unfairness of life is common in spiritual distress. Blaming is not an indication of spiritual distress. Questions that look to a solution do not indicate spiritual distress.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: Although crying is an almost universal response to loss, cultural determinants affect its acceptability for different genders and ages, and the intensity of allowable expression. Depression is a mental health issue, not a universal response to loss. Anger or distancing may be responses to loss, but they are not universal.
