Case # 3: Ms. A

Ms. A is a 27 y.o. computer analyst employed at Intel, Inc. She is unmarried, has no children and has been in a significant relationship with a female partner, Tina, for 5 years.   Tina and Ms. A live together in a home they own in Albuquerque.

For the past 9 months, Ms. A has been experiencing consistent and regular shakiness, sweating, shortness of breath and an exaggerated startle response. In addition, she experiences significant, unfocused worry and anxiety. Ms. A has tried to control the “worry” but to no avail. Ms. A comes to you, a Licensed Independent Social Worker in private practice, as she believes she is on the verge of having a “nervous breakdown”.

While conducting the biopsychosocial history, Ms. A advises you she has always been a “worrier”. In high school she displayed perfectionistic tendencies, often worried she would be late to school, was very compliant and had excessive concern about her school performance. Additionally, Ms. A reports regularly feeling inadequate and avoidant of people or situations for fear of being rejected or criticized. These characteristics continued through college and have become increasingly more prevalent, impacting her performance at work as well as her relationship with Tina.

Currently, Ms. A is anxious about most situations and experiences this most every day of the week. Sundays tend to be worse for her as she is thinking about returning to work on Monday.   Ms. A reports she is frequently irritable and agitated with co-workers and Tina. Since her worries have intensified, she has not been able to sleep due to restlessness, is chronically tired and fatigued, has trouble concentrating and generally feels “on edge”. Her work performance has declined as she is not able to meet deadlines and frequently misses meetings. Her boss has expressed concern and urged Ms. A to seek assistance.

You note these symptoms have been present during the last 9 months. Ms. A has seen her primary care physician who indicated Ms. A is in good health. Additional history you obtain indicates no use/abuse of substances.

While exploring Ms. A’s sense of inadequacy, you discover this has been a pervasive pattern beginning in late adolescence. One of the reasons Ms. A became a computer analyst was to avoid working in “teams” which would require a great deal of interpersonal contact and interactions. She has few friends and rarely socializes for fear of being unaccepted and spurned. Ms. A’s preoccupation with being criticized or rebuffed is emotionally debilitating. Developing her relationship with Tina was extremely difficult. Ms. A felt inferior to her and attempted to sabotage the relationship several times. Only after Tina “proved” she loved Ms. A did Ms. A allow a relationship to develop. Presently, Ms. A is concerned about her relationship as Tina is regularly frustrated with Ms. A’s constant worry, feelings of inadequacy, reluctance to socialize or doing things Tina likes, such as snowboarding and cycling.
