Please write a comprehensive treatment plan for Mary. Please use the model I provided on blackboard earlier in the semester. Case Study 1. Mary is a s A 29-year old married, mother of a young child age 2, presented with a history of recurrent and disabling depression and headaches.  Several weeks prior to presentation, she became severely depressed and had difficulty moving, had diminished appetite, had crying spells much of the day and felt suicidal.  At the time she presented, she was on Prozac 20 mg a day, and described herself as getting “manicky” on the Prozac.  By this, she meant that she was “rushing around, laughing a lot and having more anxiety.”  A past trial with Wellbutrin was poorly tolerated because of sweating episodes, insomnia and agitation.  Her depression was worsening despite the Prozac treatment. There was a past history of concussion at age 18, when she suffered loss of consciousness. She also described a history of mood swings for many years. There was also a history of alcohol abuse when she was a teenager. Family history revealed severe mood swings in both her father and paternal grandmother.
