Thirty-year-old Samantha is married with a son and lives in Chicago. One day she wakes up in strange room with no recollection o
f getting there. She walks outside and sees many palm trees and has no idea what city she is in. Try as she might, she can't remember how she got there or when. Which of the following best explains what happened to Samantha? A) She is suffering from DID.
B) She is suffering from dissociative fugue.
C) She is suffering from dissociative amnesia.
D) She is suffering from schizophrenia.
Well, it could either be B or C- they're both psychiatric disorders that involve memory loss. Fugue is actually categorised as part of anmesia, so you could use C, since it's an umbrella term.
However, it's likely to be fugue, since it involves wandering, creating a new identity and often confusion when the fugue ends and the person recalls their pre-fugue life. Therefore, I would answer B.
you may feel tired all the time if you have chronic fatigue syndrome. This condition causes extreme fatigue that doesn’t improve with sleep. Its cause is unknown. There’s no test to confirm chronic fatigue
