Social Anxiety Disorder

How would you define the disorder?

In situations where they may be inspected, assessed, or judged by others, such as speaking in public, meeting new people, answering a question in class, or having to chat to a cashier in a store, a person with social anxiety disorder experiences anxiety or terror; commonplace activities such as eating or drinking in front of people or using a public lavatory, might generate anxiety or dread of being embarrassed, judged, or rejected (Mayo Foundation for medical Education and Research, 2021).

What signs/symptoms would one see in the patient that demonstrate the disorder?

Unlike ordinary uneasiness, social anxiety disorder include fear, anxiety, and avoidance that interfere with relationships, daily routines, job, school, or other activities (Mayo Foundation for medical Education and Research, 2021).

What are the main DSM-5 criteria for this disorder?

Several criteria are involved when diagnosing someone with social anxiety disorder (DSM-5 definition of social anxiety disorder, n.d).

persistent anxiety of being exposed to unfamiliar people or being scrutinized by others in one or more social or performance circumstances. The person is afraid that he or she may do something embarrassing and humiliating (or show anxiety symptoms).

Being exposed to the feared situation nearly always causes worry, which can manifest as a situationally bound or predisposed Panic Attack.

The individual recognizes that his or her fear is irrational or excessive.

Fearful circumstances are avoided or endured with a great deal of anxiety and distress.

The avoidance, nervous anticipation, or distress in the dreaded social or performance situation(s) severely interferes with the person’s usual routine, occupational (academic) functioning, social activities, or relationships, or the person feels distressed by having the phobia.

The fear, worry, or avoidance is long-term, usually lasting six months or more.

What are the top 3 differential diagnosis for this disorder from the DSM-5?

panic disorder

agoraphobia

atypical depression

5.

What medications would you use? Why? Black box warnings?

Though there are a variety of drugs available, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are frequently used to treat chronic social anxiety symptoms. Sertraline or paroxetine (Paxil) may be prescribed by your doctor (Zoloft); Venlafaxine (Effexor XR), a serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), may also be used to treat social anxiety disorder (Mayo Foundation for medical Education and Research, 2021).

What type of therapy would you recommend for this patient?

Most patients with social anxiety disorder benefit from psychotherapy. In therapy, you will learn how to recognize and modify negative beliefs about yourself as well as build skills to help you achieve social confidence; CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) is the most successful type of psychotherapy for anxiety, and it can be used either individually or in groups (Mayo Foundation for medical Education and Research, 2021).

What do you see as the possible outcomes for this patient?

Combination of an appropriate therapy and medications as last resort should be helpful to this patient to a high degree and go a long way in increasing the prognosis

Competencies

In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competency:

Evaluate creative and innovative organizational structures

Recommend alternative innovations to solve an internal or market need

Implement creative and innovative processes within an organization

Scenario

You work as a middle manager for one of the top U.S. producers of luxury and mass-market automobiles and trucks.

The chief technology officer (CTO) of the company from the course scenario has been watching new technology developments that the company could integrate into its vehicles to enhance the usefulness of and access to the data acquired by the many digital sensors that have been integrated into vehicle subsystems over the past 20–30 years. The technology trend of particular interest is the internet of things (IoT)—the interconnection of embedded devices, such as sensors and computers, over the internet. By taking advantage of this trend, the CTO believes the company can seize an opportunity to provide better service and predictive maintenance to its customers, improving customer satisfaction and adding additional revenue streams.

Based on briefings by the CTO, senior management has decided to implement IoT in its product line. Your CTO has asked you to lead a cross-functional team to take this initiative forward. Your first task is to make a recommendation for how the company should approach this business problem. Do you recommend using incremental or discontinuous (that is, slow or fast) innovation? Specifically:

Should the company…

Design a completely new product line, based on the new technology (discontinuous innovation)

or

Add new technology features into one model and then incrementally into the broader product line (incremental innovation)

The recommendation you and your team make is an important first step in pursuing this new technology.

In Milestone One, you and your team defined what that innovation looked like: would it be disruptive (new product line) or incremental (new features in one existing product)? 

In Milestone Two, you developed a strategy plan and a high-level business model. You’ve shared these with various stakeholders, and they are in agreement with your assessment of how best to get to market with this IoT innovation, which will allow the company to be competitive. 

Now, the CTO has asked you to come up with a proposed organizational structure that will support the innovation implementation. In this way, you will be assisting in making the innovation sustainable for the company from the course scenario. Companies that are innovative must make sure they have structured the organization in a way that supports innovation, and a key component of innovation is keeping track of what their customers want in terms of products and services.

What is the best way to ensure health and wellness?

Police stress, PTSD, suicide, and general wellness are all topics of concern for police leaders, officers, their families, and our community leaders. Although police agencies have not always been proactive in addressing wellness and safety, it remains a tremendous problem, particularly in an era where police are scrutinized, filmed, and recorded for every citizen interaction. Much of the reporting is biased and incorrect. There is merit in mandatory health and wellness programming. There is merit in allowing and encouraging officers to seek mental health help without fear of losing their jobs. We must protect the more than 750,000 police officers in our country and ensure their long-term health and wellness is maintained. The question is how to do this? What is the best way to ensure health and wellness? Would an after-action style review be more effective it if were employed after shifts that are particularly traumatic? Would it be helpful if officers were afforded the opportunity to have a post-shift de-stressing session to vent about their experiences and concerns? Provide a response to these questions that is supported by relevant literature and/or the textbook.

For each thread, students must support their assertions with at least 3 scholarly citations 

in APA format. Each reply must incorporate at least 1 scholarly citation in APA format. Any 

sources cited must have been published within the last five years. Acceptable sources include the 

textbook, the Bible, and peer reviewed journals published within the past five years.
