Adolescents are at greater risk for committing suicide if they have __________ problems.

A. While adolescents may have a high rate of suicide attempts, their attempts are not typically as fatal as those in older adults. This is often due to less lethal methods being used, lower intent, and less access to means. Suicide attempts among adolescents tend to have a lower success rate compared to older adults.
B. Young adults also have a notable rate of suicide attempts, but the lethality of these attempts is generally lower compared to older adults. The methods used by young adults may not be as immediately fatal or decisive as those used by older adults.
C. Older adults have a higher success rate in suicide attempts, with a significant portion of attempts resulting in death. One reason for this is that older adults are more likely to use highly lethal methods, such as firearms or overdoses of medication. Additionally, older adults may have a more determined intent to die, and their methods are often more effective at causing death.
D. Middle-aged adults do have a significant rate of suicide attempts, and their attempts are more likely to be fatal than those of adolescents or young adults. However, the success rate is still generally lower than that of older adults.

A. It is not the immediate priority during a panic attack. The client is currently in a state of heightened distress, and trying to teach new techniques at this moment may not be effective or practical.
B. Although administering PRN (as needed) antianxiety medication can be beneficial for managing symptoms, the immediate priority should be to ensure the client feels safe and supported. Medication may be used later in the process, but addressing the immediate needs and providing a calming environment is crucial first.
C. While understanding the client’s thought process can be helpful for therapeutic purposes and future treatment planning, asking about thoughts during an acute panic attack can be overwhelming and may not be the most supportive approach at that moment.
D. The first priority during a panic attack is to ensure the client feels safe and supported. Staying with the client in a quiet place helps reduce stimuli that could exacerbate the panic attack and provides reassurance.
