A patient was referred to the psychiatrist's office to find out what's wrong with him so he can live a normal life. This is what he told the psychiatrist:
He realizes that he cannot focus on finishing any tasks that he was expected to complete at work. He almost got fired because he was not paying attention to what he was doing or listening to others. He always interrupts everyone while talking without taking turns in the conversations. He is impatient with others and often reacts emotionally without holding back. When he gets angry, he often uses foul language without hesitating. He acts out his anger by punching others in the face even though he knows he is not supposed to hit others so impulsively.
His life is so chaotic that he can't seem to get his priority straight. He lost his relationship when he demanded so much attention from the relationship that is exhausting to anyone. He is always distracted by anything that is new and forgets that he needs to finish the old projects before he starts new ones.
He gets so frustrated that almost gives up the hope that he can accomplish something if he does not create dramas every day. He is hypersentive to any criticism and reacts badly fearing that everyone is out to get him. He is almost giving up hope in life when he feels like a failure. He has lost weight and losing sleep because he is worried about losing his job and no one seems to like him even though he constantly seeks attention from others.
He is always on the go, climbing things when he was a kid. He never sits still on the chair and often irritates others when he is so hyperactive. He was diagnosed with a disorder when he was a little kid but he refused to take the medication and threw them out when his parents were not looking. Now, his life is in such a mess that he is willing to give it another try to seek help from a psychiatrist to find out how he can fix his life back to normal.
1. What are the characteristic symptoms and the associated disorders of above case.
2. What are the screening tests to identify different cognitive deficits?

Voters commonly condemn politicians for being insincere, but politicians often must disguise their true feelings when they make public statements. if they expressed their honest views—about, say, their party's policies—then achieving politically necessary compromises would be much more difficult. clearly, the very insincerity that people decry shows that our government is functioning well. which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines this reasoning? (a) achieving political compromises is not all that is necessary for the proper functioning of a government. (b) some political compromises are not in the best long-term interest of the government. (c) voters often judge politicians by criteria other than the sincerity with which they express their views.
