What are some symptoms that may make it difficult for patients to establish trust with the nurse?

A. Making observations involves describing what the nurse sees or notices (e.g., “You seem upset”), not asking the client to elaborate.
B. Offering self means making oneself available to the client (e.g., “I’ll stay here with you”), not prompting for more details.
C. Reflection directs the client’s thoughts or feelings back to them (e.g., “You’re feeling anxious about this”), rather than asking for expansion.
D. General lead is correct because the nurse’s response (“Tell me about your accident”) encourages the client to continue talking and lead the conversation.

A. Gabapentin (Neurontin) is not an antipsychotic. It is classified as an anticonvulsant and is commonly used for seizure disorders, neuropathic pain, and sometimes anxiety. It has no role in treating psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia.
B. Chlorpromazine (Thorazine) is a first-generation (typical) antipsychotic and one of the earliest medications developed to treat psychosis. It works by blocking dopamine receptors.
C. Haloperidol (Haldol) is another first-generation (typical) antipsychotic, frequently used for acute agitation and psychotic disorders.
D. Risperidone (Risperdal) is a second-generation (atypical) antipsychotic, used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and irritability in autism spectrum disorder.
