“I just don’t enjoy anything any more” — a single phenomenon, described before it is named
Level 1 · 1 of 8 stages revealed
Fictional training case. A deterministic, staged teaching case — description before diagnosis. Information is revealed one stage at a time. Not a real patient and not a diagnosis quiz.
Phenomenology first
Before you read the case, hold the question in mind: what exactly is being experienced? Your job at each stage is to describe what is there, not to name a disorder.
Consider: What will you try to establish before reaching for any label?
Teaching: Start from the experience itself — what is felt, seen, or reported — and keep description ahead of explanation throughout.
