A nursing student has been feeling increasingly overwhelmed. In addition to attending nursing school, the client works full time at night to support his wife and two young children.
 
  He missed clinical this week because he overslept, and he also failed a test. His boss has reprimanded him for falling asleep on the job. This evening, his wife found him in the garage assembling a noose. When she questioned him, he began to cry. She immediately brought him to the emergency department. The nurse understands this type of crisis is:
  A) Maturational/developmental.
  B) Dispositional.
  C) Originating from anticipated life transitions.
  D) Resulting from traumatic stress.
