Dan has been through a rough time with his recent expulsion from school and his father committing suicide. Despite these traumatic experiences, Dan denies that they affect him, claiming he is "fine". At the beginning, Dan appears uncomfortable, isn’t truthful about how he’s feeling and how he makes money (selling pot). Once the nurse is able to establish a relationship with Dan, he slowly reveals that he’s been suffering from nightmares about his family, things that his father would do when Dan was a kid. Dan doesn’t have any close friends; he has a lot of acquaintances as the "funny guy". He admits to spending a lot of time alone, that very little makes him happy, and he has few times he can let his guard down and make people laugh. Dan further describes a lack of appetite, that he has lost weight recently, stopped playing sports because of an injury, and is just tired a lot.

Dan’s father suffered from Schizophrenia, and since his father’s suicide, he now wonders whether he has the condition himself. Dan describes instances where his thoughts were jumbled together, and experiencing confusion, often coinciding with family and school issues. Dan says this confusion occurs when he’s under the influence of marijuana, but claims that it happens more frequently when he’s not under the influence. Based on his responses to the assessment, Dan does not experience symptoms such as a belief that people can read his mind or know what his thoughts are; he does not hear sounds that aren’t there, and does not believe that he can read other people’s minds. When alone, Dan sometimes feels like someone is out to get him, usually coinciding with "hitting the bong pretty hard" and consuming edible marijuana products. The feelings of paranoia do not persist, however, when Dan is not smoking. Dan’s father also had many of the symptoms which has made Dan fearful of his own risk for schizophrenia. Dan further describes a lack of friends, having feelings that he’s being judged, and that people think he’s "the crazy guy’s son." The two main issues that Dan is experiencing are primarily rooted in family trauma and his marijuana use.

Continuing the interview, Claire asks the clinician whether he prescribes pain medications, initially hoping to extend her prescription. Recognizing she may have overstepped, Claire quickly attempts to change the conversation to the clinician’s credentials. As the interview examines Claire’s personal life, we learn that it has been three months since Claire stopped working, which she says was a result of her boss being unaccommodating to her pain issues. Claire feels the Lortabs helped her at work. However, when the effects of the Lortab would run out while at work, Claire could become stressed and irritable. Claire claims that the reason for the Lortab ineffectiveness was due to her boss increasing her workload rather than an issue of tolerance to the dosage. Upon further examination, Claire admits she missed appointments because she was squeezing in doctor’s appointments to renew her prescriptions. Presently, Claire has stopped looking for work and her friends are concerned. Yet rather than listen to her friends, Claire has ended those friendships saying she doesn’t need negativity in her life. Instead of having fun, all she does is worry her problems and care for other people.

Claire says she has a single glass of wine every night and nothing else. When at a party, however, she may have up to three or four drinks but never six. Claire states she can always stop if she wants to and has not had any poblems with drinking since her children were young. Claire’s never been unable to fulfill an obligation, or wasn’t able to do something because of drinking. Claire never drinks in the morning, which is when she takes her prescription of Lortab. Claire clarifies this statement, adding that she might “indulge” with a glass around midday or brunch but that she never mixes her pills and alcohol. Those times when she does drink during the day do lead to feelings of guilt. During those times which she drinks more heavily at parties, Claire can have hazy memories. Her son, Scotty was injured once as a result of her drinking but, as she says, did not have to go to hospital as a result of the injuries. The incident happened when Scotty, who was staying at a friend’s house, called Claire to pick him up. At that point Claire already had a couple glass of wine and her pills and couldn’t get a hold of her mother or husband and so therefore drove, which led to her “bumping him” with her car. Claire admits that she’s also injured herself when drinking and her mother has expressed concern for her drinking because her father was an alcoholic.

Claire describes her mood as decent though lately she feels more overwhelmed than passionate about her work. Claire used to love to read, but she attributes her poor eyesight for not enjoying that activity lately. Becoming tearful, Claire opens up about having spent so much energy being a mother that she’s fearful what her role will be when her kids go to college. Furthermore, her mother’s health is declining and her she worries her husband, who has been spending a lot of time away from home, will leave her. Claire is able to sleep thanks to taking a pill before bed. During the day, she is lacking in energy because her activity level is minimal. Since she’s stopped working and mainly stays home watching television and going on the internet, Claire has gained thirty pounds. Claire’s mom has been critical of her use of Lortabs and drinking alcohol, which Claire believes helps her to hold everything together. By the end of the interview, Claire says she’s tired of letting her family down.

Lauren doesn’t feel like she’s bullied at school; rather, she describes feeling completely invisible to the other students except for the instances where they are judging her. When she was younger, Lauren used to have friends but was also tormented by another girl in her class who would stare at her and threaten her to "watch her back." Lauren tried to join in with other kids but they would always follow the bully in making fun of Lauren. At the time, Lauren’s teachers were oblivious to the harassment and Lauren worried that if she told anyone at school or at home, the teachers would blame her. During that period in her life, every time Lauren would get up to speak in front of the class, the other kids would put stuff on the floor so she would trip or would laugh at her when she spoke, instances that may have a bearing on her current problems.
