You see Jill (age 24) in the emergency room of a hospital where her parents have brought her
for evaluation. They are worried because she is giving away all of her possessions and says she
is planning to move to Seattle so she can "save the world." Her parents say that she has hardly
been sleeping at all, but she seems very energetic. They say she has appeared to be "in a frenzy"

be quiet long enough for you to ask questions. She seems agitated, and has difficulty sitting
still.
