Question

A client who has recently lost her spouse says, "No one cares about me anymore. All the people I loved are dead." Which response demonstrates an understanding of therapeutic communication when dealing with a grieving client?

Answer 1

The correct answer is Loneliness with depression

When a person feels lonely, he cannot be comfortable, much less feel desired, understood or valued. Such feelings can be confused with depression, which makes the person feel bad in a broader way. However, the symptoms of loneliness can lead to another illness.

Depression is caused by both genetic and biological factors, as well as external factors. Therefore, care must be taken when discussing the triggers of the disease.

Depression is not necessarily aligned with events. Everything may be going very well in the life of a depressed person, but he will continue to show signs of illness until he seeks treatment. Sadness is justified: in general, the person is aware of it and knows what generated the feeling.

Answer 2

Loneliness with depression

Explanation:

Depression is a psychological mental disorder. It is a serious illness. It disturbed a person's daily routine activity. This is a persistently depressed mood that causes illness. In this mental illness, the client feels depressed all the time.

The client loses hope for life. Hopeless, helpless and worthless are three common symptoms that occur in a patient with depression. When someone loses their loved one, the person fills with grief which persistently occurs and later on converts in depression. Loneliness is also a big factor or cause for depression.
