"I do work well under pressure and seem to do my best work in stressful situations. At my previous job, I had a patient who was undergoing a psychotic episode. I was called to the house by his family, who had also called the police because he had become violent and was threatening his brother with a knife. I was one hour away on a business trip, so I could not go to the house immediately. I was able to get my patient on the phone, and I calmed him down. He released the knife before the police arrived. He did not harm himself or others and was taken in for a mental health evaluation. During the evaluation, the staff discovered that he had flushed his meds down the toilet and was using heroin, which resulted in his psychotic episode."
