The ability to share in a client’s life is defined by which of the following terms?

Choice A rationale
Overinvolvement with unapproved friends could potentially lead to negative influences and behaviors, but it does not directly correlate with the symptoms described.
Choice B rationale
Overinvolvement with social media could explain the girl’s symptoms. Excessive use of social media can lead to social isolation, increased stress, and decreased enjoyment in previously loved activities.
Choice C rationale
While attention-deficit disorder could explain some of the symptoms, such as a decrease in school performance, it does not typically result in social withdrawal or an increased desire to stay in her room.
Choice D rationale
An eating disorder could potentially explain the girl’s withdrawal and increased stress, but there is no mention of changes in eating habits or concerns about body image.

Choice A rationale
Personality disorders are characterized by enduring maladaptive patterns of behavior, cognition, and inner experience, exhibited across many contexts and deviating from those accepted by the individual’s culture. These patterns develop early, are inflexible, and are associated with significant distress or disability. However, the behaviors described in the question are not specific to personality disorders.
Choice B rationale
Affective disorders, also known as mood disorders, involve persistent feelings of sadness or periods of feeling overly happy, or fluctuations from extreme happiness to extreme sadness. The behaviors mentioned in the question do not align with the symptoms of affective disorders.
Choice C rationale
Dysfunctional disorder is not a recognized term in psychiatric diagnosis. Therefore, it cannot be the correct answer.
Choice D rationale
Conduct disorder is a mental health condition that affects children and teens. People with this condition persistently display severely antisocial and aggressive behaviors. They may bully others, be abusive to small animals, lie, steal, drink alcohol, use drugs, or skip school, often before their teenage years. The behaviors described in the question align with the symptoms of conduct disorder.
