Assignment DetailsAssignment DescriptionCase InformationFran S. was arrested for prescription fraud when she tried to obtain prescription painkillers at a pharmacy with a fake prescription. You have been asked to assess her situation and make treatment recommendations to the court.Fran S. is a 32-year-old employee at a local bank. She was briefly hospitalized after a car accident 14 months ago and sustained injuries to her neck and back. Her doctor prescribed painkillers for these injuries. He told her that she should only take the painkillers for a few months, but Fran found that she liked the feelings of calm and relaxation that the painkillers produced. Even though the pain from her neck and back went away, she kept telling her doctor that she was in pain so that he would continue prescribing the drugs. When her own doctor told her that he would no longer prescribe the painkillers for her, she found it difficult to go for more than a few days without the painkillers (she reported feeling anxious, irritable, and “not herself” when she stopped taking them) and found another doctor who would prescribe her painkillers.Fran told herself that the painkillers helped her get through her day, but she started missing deadlines at work and repeatedly coming in late, putting her job in jeopardy. Her husband also reported a difference in her behavior, saying that she was detached, much more irritable and likely to start arguments over minor issues, which had not been a problem in the past. Fran started taking larger doses of the painkillers because she had stopped feeling their effects at the smaller doses. Her second doctor became suspicious of how frequently she needed prescriptions and refused to prescribe her any more drugs. Fran tried again to stop using the painkillers but found that she was experiencing problems, such as headaches, blurred vision, and anxiety, when she was not taking the painkillers. She could not find another doctor to prescribe her the painkillers, so Fran started submitting fake prescriptions to the pharmacy.Assignment InstructionsThe Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-5) lists the criteria for assessing whether a person has a substance use disorder, which it divides into three levels of severity: mild, moderate, or severe.

Write 7 pages thesis on the topic knowledge and wisdom from childhood experiences. Although my development as a student is still not complete, I believe that I would be able to help other people with the knowledge and wisdom I have gained over the years through my various life experiences.

I was born on August 21, 1983, in Guam and my earliest memory of my childhood was playing with my siblings in front of our small house. I have four sisters and three brothers and I am the third oldest among my siblings. Financially, we were poor and therefore my family lived on the support provided by the federal government. I remember, as a child, I always had to forgo things that I desired because of our financial limitations. That was not all. I and my siblings also had to face several challenges that came from the home front. Both my parents were addicted to alcohol and drugs. This combination of living in poverty and my parent’s addiction to drugs and alcohol resulted in a lot of fights and arguments in the house between my parents and also between my parents and my siblings. This challenge increased further when one day my parents decided to get separated. Therefore, a large part of my childhood was spent in a single-parent home.

In the following pages, I will try to analyze my life concerning the eight stages of social skills development as identified by Erik Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development. Each of these stages is characterized by specific developmental achievements, which act as a turning point in the development of an individual (Cherry, n.d.).

Erikson identifies the first stage, which is seen from birth to 18 months, as the oral-sensory phase wherein a child learns to trust his/her caregiver (Heffner, 2001). Although I can hardly recollect any experience before I was 18 months old, my older siblings have mentioned that we grew up trusting and caring for each other. Although my development as a student is still not complete, I believe that I would be able to help other people with the knowledge and wisdom I have gained over the years through my various life experiences.
