Psychotherapy Note
Client described a pattern of persecutory delusions, including suspiciousness of others without reasonable cause. A.V. demonstrated a pattern of misinterpretation of benign events as having threatening significance of a personal nature. Client’s history is replete with incidents in which she believed she was persecuted by others. A.V. has gone through periods of time when she did not sleep for 24 consecutive hours or more because her energy level was so high. The client was assessed for her current state of elation: none, hypomanic, manic, or psychotic. A.V. was assessed to be manic. The client’s mania was so severe that periods of psychosis have been present. An assessment was performed of the client’s ability to remain safe within the community. Client was assessed in regard to her level of manic behavior, impulsivity, and propensity toward potentially unsafe situations. Due to programmatic supports, the client has been assessed as being able to remain safe within the community despite her symptoms of mania. Follow up session TBA.
