Kаrmen Fuentes wаs а 50-year-оld married Hispanic wоman whо presented to the psychiatric emergency room (ER) at the urging of her outpatient psychiatrist after telling him that she had been thinking about overdosing on Advil. She described feeling “abandoned and not cared about” by her doctors. When asked about her suicidal comments, she said they were “no big deal.” She reported that they were “just a threat” aimed at her husband to “teach him a lesson” because “he has no compassion for me” and had not been supportive since the fall. She insisted her comments about overdosing did not have other meaning. When her ER interviewer expressed concern about the possibility that she would kill herself, she exclaimed with a smile, “Oh wow, I didn’t realize it’s so serious. I guess I shouldn’t do that again.” She was also somewhat flirtatious with her male resident interviewer, who had mentioned that she was the “best-dressed woman in the ER.” Ms. Fuentes described being “an early bloomer.” She became sexually active with older men when she was in high school. She said dating had been the most fun thing she had ever done and that she missed seeing men “jump through hoops” to sleep with her.
