Subjective
A.M. suffers from suicidal tendencies, which is a reflection of mental distress resulting from living in a disjointed family. The parents separated owing to the father’s behavior of having an affair with the aunt. A.M. feels guilty of not informing the mother of the affair earlier enough despite having knowledge of the affair. The experiences from such a family environment and the loss of her child have made her develop post-partum depression alongside being angry most of the time and feeling wasted. There are clear signs showing deterioration of his health, resulting in loss of weight due to malnutrition.
