Subject: Physician's Desk Reference (PDR) psychiat.
Case Study 2 - M.M.
An interesting 35 year old male (M.M.) came in for therapy in December of 1990. He was a bright, attractive professional. During the course of the first meeting, he remarked that he smoked marijuana every day. He was told that if he wanted his therapy to be effective he would have to stop. He commented that he couldn't and spoke of his inpatient experience two years prior. He had gotten high the afternoon he got out of treatment.
He had begun drinking at age 13 and drank to get drunk every weekend. He began smoking marijuana at age 14. By age 15, he had a goal to try every psychoactive substance at least once and studied the Physician's Desk Reference (PDR) to be sure he didn't miss anything.
