Answer 1

A: a young man is threatening to hurt himself

B: a women is threatening to hurt her employer

D: a young woman who is gainfully employed has not been caring for herself.

Step-by-step explanation:

anyone who seems to want to harm theirselves or another person (intentionally) should seek or be advised to receive psychiatric evaluation.

same goes for anyone who ( intentionally ) does not care for themselves because it is along the lines of self harm. Your health is very important and neglecting your health ( or the health of others ) is NOT okay!
