A pаtient is evаluаted by a PMHNP fоr hallucinatiоns. There is nо evidence of substance use or withdrawal, and the primary care provider completed a thorough physical exam with laboratory testing both showing nothing abnormal. The spouse of the patient recently passed away, and the family has been watching her closely. They recommended she be evaluated after she has been responding to demanding and critical voices from people she can hear but no one else can. These voices had been present for 2 or 3 weeks, but the patient insists she no longer hears them. One family member states “It is weird, but I don’t think she is hearing them anymore. She was really scaring us for a while. She wasn’t able to function at all. I mean, no bathing, pacing at night instead of sleeping. But it took a few weeks before we could get in to see you, so now I’m not sure if she is still ill.” Which provisional diagnosis would be appropriate?
