[@robynneRN]

At 22:00 I was wondering why b) is incorrect? I thought it was b) based on the fact that it says "meet basic needs" but then I am wondering if it is wrong because of the "intense relationships" part which would be more like Borderline Personality Disorder?

[@albertoperezgonzalez5002]

that was my exact same thought.

[@ugwulinda2057]

[@abbyojomo5246]

Thank you for all your efforts in helping us to pass. Could you please arrange them under your Playlist? I want to concentrate on pharmacology and medsurg.

[@NexusNursing]

I’m so new to this technology I just recently learned what a playlist is! I will work on that this weekend! I got you!

[@hawkflamez9719]

Very informative and the way you explain drilling in the brain. Keep it up not like only I love you professor D❤ Parminder

[@MarioSandoval-zb7lu]

I've watched so many of your videos and such a help!! I can hear you when im taking my tests

[@lindsay822]

The dependent personality question doesn’t make sense to me. How is the answer not dependence on intense relationships to meet basic needs ?

[@NexusNursing]

What is the time stamp on your question?

[@lindsay822]

@@NexusNursing the question begins @ 21:15 but I read another reply that explained it better. Choice B says Hx of, not currently. Thank you!

[@NexusNursing]

yessss!!!

[@Ps3COD4Fan]

It's such a weird feeling, you get me excited to answer nursing questions lol

Awesome value provided here Prof D. Thhhhank you for your service (-!

[@NexusNursing]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jazzyjaliyah580]

Wow this video was very informative and helpful for breaking down the different personality disorders!! Thank you

[@Idkwhatyallwant]

Loved your videos so much! Can you make more mental health videos pleaseee ❤

[@____sej]

23:30 Isn't the answer B? For choice C - adult could be 19 years old living with parents and taking the subway like every New Yorker that age.

[@Mel-pb5xw]

Yup not sure if B. Is correct but as written C is not. I agree. I get that they were trying to imply an unhealthy dependency but as it’s written it’s a poor question & not very attuned to different cultural, socioeconomic, or geographic differences. Many people live with family for cultural or financial reasons that aren’t maladaptive, ie collectively contributing to the household, & public transportation is the norm in many places or may be the only financially feasible option for some.

[@eyespecialistsofohiocatara6336]

Thank you professor D for all your videos

[@jewlsareforever]

I'm still confused with the question about "dependant personality disorder." You said the answer was "C" which wasn't as extreme as another answer. If that disorder means that they really need to depend on other people for their needs, why wouldn't it be "B" which is more intense because they depend on relationships to meet "basic needs." With "C," they just live with their parents and use public transportation... I don't find that as abnormal.

[@NexusNursing]

please send time frame

[@jewlsareforever]

@@NexusNursing 23:00!

[@NexusNursing]

@@jewlsareforever not B because the problem isn’t depending on intense relationships, people with this order depend on (unnecessarily) someone else to accomplish things that can do for themselves ( drive car, balance checkbook, pay rent, etc.)

[@jewlsareforever]

@@NexusNursing ohhhh i see. Thank you. That clarified it or me

[@Nellopi22]

Ok I thought it was just me that was confused on the dependent personality disorder answer also I would of chose B or D

[@ericamcgee6376]

Wonderful video Professor D.

[@cousinbalky21]

Thank you so much, you're a great professor

[@ginaclame20]

How is the answer to the borderline personality disorder is not self mutilization. I could have sworn my instructor said that in class now I’m confused.

[@Humbletrader08]

thanks for the video very straight forward lesson, and you got me with that pink eye liner :)

[@laurenmercer2502]

At 8:33, I had this exact question on a test and I chose C remembering this video. The right answer was B due to safety. Could you help rationalize this please?

[@markayoola4732]

Thanks professor D. God bless u Pls do some teaching on eye and ear

Always amazing! Love watching you!

[@ashleerenae9788]

Is it also "splitting" if a patient does this with a parent, like an attempt to pit the nurse against the parent or would that be called something different?

[@natural3378]

U always look so pretty

[@chandralake8953]

Hi Prof D! Happy New Year. I wanted to know if you provide tutoring for RN NCLEX? I'm thinking about taking it at the end of the month. What would you recommend would be a good study tool? Help

[@NexusNursing]

unfortunately I have stopped tutoring since the pandemic but I like UWorld, Mark K and I love Exam Cram! Good luck on your upcoming exam and make sure you are covering a minimum of 150 questions daily. Quality over quantity. You got this!! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@flipssimple]

Nexus Nursing I use uworld and exam cram as well. So far so good.🙏🏿🙏🏿

[@kaii4808]

thanks prof d

[@chandlerp206]

So you said that Histrionic was attention seeking and would do the suicidal gestures so how is the answer for the Borderline self-harm behavior “suicidal gestures” as well? Time frame 30:55

[@NexusNursing]

Many disorders share one or more symptoms

Hi professor D..Great video 👍🏽

i think this should be option A

If you are not sure of the answer.... it's "C".

[@angelenerivera810]

“i just turned into Tupac” 😂😂

[@beaustisings101b5]

I just get confused because sometimes you address their behavior and sometimes you disarm them by saying something therapeutic.

[@NexusNursing]

it depends on the situation

[@emilynosacka6075]

I love you and your videos, but I can’t stand watching you drink after every question

[@estebanhernandezgomez4903]

Your videos are amazing and helpful , but please, don't drink on camera!!. it is quite inappropriate.

[@TheSANJAYJANGIR]

Eyes seen horrible

[@MKD267]

The videos are good but why out of all the 24 hours to eat & drink, chose to have a cup of coffee while delivering an educational video? It looks quite unprofessional.

Are you paying her? She is doing everyone a favor, so she should do it comfortably..

[@feliciawarfield5039]

@@brideofchrist3973 I agree!!! Thank you Professor D

[@emilyjoy8140]

It makes me feel more comfortable and make the video feel more like a converstation rather than a class which helps with my studying anxiety
