A nurse is caring for a client who frequently breaks their arms and other bones on purpose. The nurse understands that the client likely has which diagnosis?

A. Dissociative amnesia: This diagnosis involves a loss of memory for personal information or events, typically following trauma or stress. It does not relate to intentionally causing injuries or symptoms. B. Factitious disorder: Individuals with factitious disorder intentionally produce or feign physical or psychological symptoms to assume the role of a sick person. This behavior can include causing self-harm, such as breaking bones, to gain attention, sympathy, or care from others. The client's actions align with this diagnosis. C. Illness anxiety disorder: Previously known as hypochondriasis, this disorder involves excessive worry about having a serious illness despite having no significant medical evidence. Individuals with this disorder do not intentionally cause harm to themselves; rather, they focus on perceived health concerns. D. Functional neurological symptom disorder: This disorder involves neurological symptoms that cannot be explained by medical conditions. While individuals may have genuine neurological symptoms, they do not typically engage in self-harm or intentionally inflict injuries as seen in factitious disorder.
