Role Management:
Case of Peter (2)

After following up with Peter, you refer him to his psychiatrist to address his medications. Peter calls you two weeks after this appointment with an update.

He says, “Dr. Green adjusted my meds but I am having more problems now. I take my meds just before dinner instead of first thing in the morning. I’m not as drowsy but I feel more depressed in the morning because the meds are wearing off. It’s really making me nervous when I go to work. I feel like I’m going to fail and like everyone can tell. I called in sick yesterday; I just didn’t feel good at all. I really don’t want to work in the morning. I’m really mad at my supervisor for lying to me during the interview. I would not have taken this job if I knew my schedule was going to be moved all over the place.”

Was the discrepancy worked out?
