A nurse is providing education about somatic symptom disorder to a client's family. Which of the following pieces of information should the nurse include in the education?

A. This response provides accurate information about the early warning signs of schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Social withdrawal and isolation are commonly observed before the onset of

psychotic symptoms, such as hearing voices. By acknowledging this pattern, the nurse validates the client's experience and offers insight into potential warning signs.

B. This fails to address the client's concern or provide meaningful information about the potential significance of their behavior.

C. While exploring the client's personality traits and how they relate to socialization is valid, this response does not directly address the client's concern about isolating themselves before experiencing symptoms of schizophrenia.

D. This response makes an assumption about the client's motivations for avoiding their friend and implies a connection between social isolation and hearing voices that may not be accurate.

B. Factitious disorder involves feigning or inducing physical or psychological symptoms in oneself to assume the sick role and receive attention or care, often from medical professionals.

A. Functional neurological symptom disorder (previously known as conversion disorder) involves the presence of neurological symptoms that are inconsistent with known neurological conditions or diseases.

C. The primary focus in illness anxiety disorder is on the fear of having an illness rather than deliberate fabrication of symptoms.

D. The focus in somatic symptom disorder is on the physical symptoms themselves rather than deliberate fabrication or exaggeration of illness.
