This case presents the issues of Peter, a man living with his wife, Gail on the edges of a regional town. Read the scenario then respond in your assignment to the following questions.
Peter is a 35-year-old man who lives with his wife and two children, aged 10 and 7 years, on a small property just outside a large regional town. Peter grew up on a farm three hours’ drive north but is now well established in the regional town. He works as a middle level manager in a construction business. He consults a local general practitioner, Dr Mercedes, for a first visit because he has been experiencing insomnia and loss of energy. Peter adds that one of his workmates has recently been diagnosed with leukaemia. Dr Mercedes has only ten minutes allocated to see Peter and performs a quick physical examination and takes some blood. She asks Peter to return in one week. At the second visit to Dr Mercedes, Peter is told that no physical problem was found on his blood tests. The doctor is at pains to rule out the possibility of leukaemia. Peter appears relieved. The doctor prescribes a short acting benzodiazepine, temazepam for his sleep. She asks Peter to return in a month if things have not improved.
