Reviewing Elisabeth Burrows’ medical record, Nathan examines a list of drugs, including, "methylphenidate, naltrexone, haloperidol, fluoxetine, clomipramine."
Diagnoses include, ”First schizophrenic break, psychotic disorder, posttraumatic stress syndrome, attention deficit disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, expressive language disorder, manic depressive disorder, acquired aphasia, Asperger's syndrome, disthemic [sic] disorder, cyclothymic disorder, juvenile bipolar disorder.”
Nathan tells Louis, referring to Elisabeth, ”She takes on the symptoms of other patients. She's like a counterfeit schizophrenic, maybe.”
”That would place her in the malingerer’s hall of fame. I've got to believe there's some sort of genuine pathology beneath it all.”
Nathan: ”She has classic posttraumatic stress symptoms. Her PTSD is real.”
Louis: ”So, 20 different hospitalizations, 20 different diagnoses.” (0:44)
