The teacher of a 6-year-old refers the child to healthcare provider for an evaluation of frequent episodes of staring. The episodes occur daily and are brief, lasting no more than 5-8 seconds. There are typically several events per day. Occasionally, when the children are playing during recess, the child will stop their activity and exhibit a blank facial expression. The child picks at their clothing during these episodes. Following the event, the child resumes whatever activity previously engaged in. The mother states that she has not noticed any of these particular spells but notes that the child frequently “daydreams” during which the child is unresponsive to verbal stimuli. On reviewing the family history, it is discovered that there is a familial history of “seizures” unresponsive to medications. The mother herself recalls having similar “daydreaming episodes” as a child for which she was treated with medication until high school. Of note, there is a strong family history of depression. On physical examination of the child there is a large café au lait spot on the posterior thorax. The cranial nerve examination is unremarkable and there is equal strength in both the upper and lower extremities with deep tendon reflexes symmetric at 2+ of 4. The gait is normal. What is the MOST likely diagnosis?

You are assigned a group project in class. Your group is less than ideal and you feel that you are doing all the work. This upsets you because they are not doing anything to get the grade you deserve. You send out an email containing the content about the PowerPoint you will use to present the next day in class. Shortly after you send out the email, you change the whole topic and PowerPoint to be presented the next day in class. You believe that if you are prepared the next day and the others are not, the professor will really know who did all the work. This is an example of which anger mismanagement style?
