Both of these disorders are complex in their symptoms and challenges, and it is particularly challenging due to the number of clinicians/counselors who lack specialized training and knowledge of these two concurrent disorders. One similarity in the screening process; both concurrent disorders need to be asked about organic brain syndromes, developmental delays and past experience with psychosis. Suicidal ideation, self harm and past suicide attempts should also be explored with all concurrent disordered clients (Courbasson and Smith, 2005). During the screening process…
