4.
The client’s behaviors demonstrate no
functional impairment, indicating no
mental illness.

are coupled with interference in daily
functioning.

3.
When a client communicates significant
distress.

4. When a client uses defense mechanisms
as ego protection.

respond very differently to stress. One twin becomes anxious and irritable, and the

Reactions to stress are relative rather
than absolute; individual responses to
stress vary.

2.

stress.
