Diagnosing
A client that you have been treating for major depressive disorder for a few months comes in with pressured speech, and describing feelings of euphoria. The client continues to share about their last minute decision to go to Vegas this past weekend with some individuals she met while out at a bar. The client describes how fun the weekend was gambling, shopping, and drinking with their new friends. The client stated, "It was so much fun, I didn't sleep the whole weekend." At the end of the session, the client asks if you can wait to charge them for the session until next week when they get paid because they do not have enough in their bank account to cover today's session. Based on this information, what diagnosis would you want to assess the client for at this time?
