A patient diagnosed with major depression received six electroconvulsive therapy sessions and aggressive doses of antidepressant medication. The patient owns a small business and was counseled not to make major decisions for a month. Select the correct rationale for this counseling.
a.   Antidepressant medications alter catecholamine levels, which impairs decision-making abilities.
b.   Antidepressant medications may cause confusion related to limitation of tyramine in the diet.
c.   Temporary memory impairments and confusion may occur with electroconvulsive therapy.
d.   The patient needs time to readjust to a pressured work schedule.
