question

A 45-year-old limousine driver comes to the office for an initial appointment because he would like you to fill out and sign a legal document at the request of his attorney. The patient states that he is filing a lawsuit against the limousine company that employs him because he developed post-traumatic stress disorder following a motor vehicle collision. He appears irritable and tense as he provides his history. He relays his symptoms by reading them aloud from a written list. At this time, which of the following is the most appropriate approach toward confirming the underlying diagnosis of this patient?

choices

  1. Administer amobarbital and then interview the patient
  2. Ask the patient to provide a narrative with detailed description of the incident and of his symptoms
  3. Interview the patient under hypnosis
  4. Interview the patient while paying close attention to his willingness to make eye contact
