FAMILY HISTORY
GRAND MATERNAL AND PATERNAL LINEAGE
Chippys father is the youngest of 5 siblings. All of his siblings are alcoholic and
cigarette smoker. Their family was dubbed as the dako-dako in their area. His paternal
grandfather was fond of participating in vices such as cockfight, tong-its and the like. He was
also described as aggressive and violent thats why when he was alive he frequently encountered
fights with his playmates. Eventually, he was killed due to a stabbing incident during these
fights. His paternal grandmother however died due to hypertension. She was a loving mother but
was too loving that she spoiled her children especially Chippys father even after he became
married.
On the maternal side, dingdongs mother is the 4th daughter of 9 siblings. His maternal
grandfather died due to hypertension while his maternal grandmother is alive and well. They
were strict in terms of house rules but they were described as loving parents. They never hit their
children; they will just scold them and reprimand them on their mistakes.
FATHER
Chippys father was a disciplinarian type of person. He only finished high school. He was
hardworking as a father. When he was alive, he worked as a construction worker, carpenter,
plumber, and the like. He was also described as short-tempered, aggressive and frequently
drinks and smokes. He would go home drunk and would sometimes physically abuse his wife
and children. There was a time when he went home drunk, and he thought their chicken wasnt
fed by Chippy. Chippy was already sleeping, he slapped him in the face hard and Chippy woke
up and was startled. The mother verbalized that he would tell his husband ayaw anaa ang bata
ba kay makuyawan na.. When one of his children came home crying because they got into
trouble with other children, he would storm out right away and provoke a fight with those
childrens fathers. He died because he was stabbed to death during a drinking session with his
buddies when Chippy was 12 years old.
MOTHER
His mother is still alive and well at the age of 49 and is currently working as a stay-in
housemaid in a certain subdivision in El Rio. She graduated high school and is now presently
living at Maa Davao City along with her brothers and two children. She earns P3500 every
month to sustain her familys needs. She is a permissive type of person. She disciplines her
children by just reprimanding them. She would reprimand her husband when he gets too abusive.
When her husband died, after a few years she had met someone and they lived together
for around 2 years. They eventually broke up because he was assigned to a different area away
from their home and she verbalized that he also never offered financial assistance to her and her
family.
After Chippys first admission, she decided to conduct Bible Studies in their own
community with teenagers and adolescence. She said they would often make fun of her but she
still continues to do it because she wants to spread the word of the Lord to everyone especially
with the youth. She would offer snacks to her listeners as well.
SIBLINGS
Chippy is the 2nd of 4 siblings. He has an elder brother who currently assists their uncle in
their own tailoring shop in Maa. His younger sister is now living with her husband and their 3
month old baby while their youngest brother is in Grade 6.Whenever their mother is away
working as a housemaid, they are left under the care of their maternal uncles and grandmother.
His brother and sister just finished high school and they started working afterwards to assist their
mother.
Chippy was good to his siblings. After his father died, he would help in taking care of
them and looking after them. He was protective as a brother.
PERSONAL HISTORY
PRENATAL
The couple planned to have a second pregnancy. She only had pre-natal check-up in their
local health center and she said she wasnt given vitamins. She usually ate vegetables, fruits and
fish during her pregnancy. At this time she just managed their sari-sari store and took care of
their eldest child while her husband continued working.
BIRTH
Chippy was delivered full-term through normal spontaneous vaginal delivery last October
18, 1993 at their house in Arakan with the aid of a mananabang. She had no reports of
complication during and after the delivery. Himsog jud si Chippy pag-gawas niya said by
Happy.
PSYCHOSEXUAL HISTORY
During the age of 14, Chippy was able to identify his sexuality and was able to start
masturbating by watching porn videos with his friends. He verbalized that he would masturbate
up to 3x a day. He would have many crushes and textmates, but they rejected him. Before his
first admission when he was 19 years old, he met his first girlfriend in Kidapawan and they
lasted for only around 6 months because of Chippys unusual behavior. He had his first sexual
intercourse at the age of 20 with a prostitute because he was brought by his employer in a certain
barhouse in Calinan.
PLAY LIFE
Happy gave Chippy the freedom to play everywhere in the place within their community
with different playmates. He played whatever toys are available because he wasnt provided with
toys back then due to financial difficulties. He had lots of friends back then. They usually play
taksi, marbles, and dakpanay as their favorite game with his playmates. He was always the
leader of the group. They would end up playing when the time each of her playmates are called
by their parents and sometimes its already night.
SCHOOL HISTORY
Chippy started school at the age of 6. He was bugoy-bugoy in the school. He usually
finds trouble by making fun of his classmates. He was looked up as someone who is dominant
and isog thats why when there is a brawl in school, his classmates would ask for Chippys
help. He would often come home with blood on his uniform and bruises on his arms and face. He
had poor school performance and low grades. His mother verbalized wala jud siyay study
study and palaaway na siya nga bata. He stopped schooling when he was in grade 3.
OCCUPATIONAL HISTORY
At a very young age of 12, he started working as tigbantay in a billiard place owned by
his maternal grandmother. As a salary, he would be given clothes, shoes, and slippers and a small
amount of money. After 6 months, he found a job in their terminal as a carwash boy. He then
worked as a bus conductor at age 13 in Prince Bus travelling from Arakan to Kidapawan. At 13
years old he moved out of their home and lived with his employer and continued to work as a
conductor in a jeep. After his third admission, he went back to work in Arakan with his former
employer and there he resumed his reckless activities. After his fourth admission, he went back
again to Arakan but this time he worked as a kargador of corn in a certain farm. He verbalized
that he was having a hard time during this days because his workmates think that his illness is
communicable.
MARITAL HISTORY
Chippy was fond of having textmates before but none took him seriously. It was when he
was 19 years old when he first met his girlfriend, Juliet, while they were having their trip to
Kidapawan. He asked for her number and they frequently texted even when he goes back to
Arakan. In the course of 6 months, Juliet noticed a change in Chippy behavior. Chippy told her
over the phone that he doesnt feel right about himself. He doesnt understand himself anymore.
Juliet ended their relationship and encouraged him to seek treatment. After that, Chippy didnt
have any more girlfriends.
Precipitating Factors
Mother Father
Hardworking
but alcoholic
Planned pregnancy to
have Chippy
Chippys coming into being was planned. Mother had regular check-up in their barangay
health center. She didnt take any vitamins because she said she want not provided with it and
she didnt experience any difficulty during pregnancy and delivery. She usually ate fruits,
vegetables and fish because fruits and vegetables are readily accessible around their
neighborhood. She is just a high school graduate and doesnt have any work at this time but
decided on having a sari-sari store.
The father was a hardworking and has all-around job. Also a high school graduate, he
was at first a quiet person during their marriage, but he was alcoholic. He earns a meager salary
and was able to provide for the familys basic needs. They were all happy to hear about the
pregnancy.
Infancy (0-18months)
Trust vs. Mistrust (0-1 yr old)
Oral Stage
Birth of Chippy
ORAL GRATIFICATION
Toddler (1-3SATISFIED
years old)
TRUST
Trust vs. Mistrust (0-1 yr old)
Oral Stage
According to Erik Erikson, during this stage, the infant is uncertain about the world in
which they live. To resolve these feelings of uncertainty, the infant looks towards their primary
caregiver, the mother, for stability and consistency of care.
If the care the infant receives is consistent, predictable and reliable, they will develop a
sense of trust which will carry with them to other relationships, and they will be able to feel
secure even when threatened.
According to Sigmund Freud, during this stage, the mouth is the pleasure center for
development. Freud believed this is why infants are born with a sucking reflex and desire their
mother's breast. If a child's oral needs are not met during infancy, he or she may develop
negative habits such as nail biting or thumb sucking to meet this basic need.
In the case of the Chippy, his mother was the primary caregiver although the
grandmother would sometimes assist her. Happy said that Chippy always get hungry thats why
she would breastfeed him every 2 hours. This resulted to a mother-child bonding. The infant will
develop a sense of trust and will have confidence in the world around them or in their abilities to
influence events. The infant can have hope that as new crises arise, there is a real possibility that
other people will be there as a source of support. His oral gratification was also satisfied which is
evidenced by the patient being a non-cigarette smoker.
Toddler (1-3 yrs)
Autonomy vs. Shame & Doubt
Anal Stage
Mother at this time is Father is still working
busy with their poultry and often drinks and
business smokes
They left Chippy to learn to toilet train on his own under the care of relatives
His first word was Mama at the age of 1 year and 2 months
Father often scold Chippy whenever the former gets home drunk
Anal Stage
Between the ages of 18 months and three, children begin to assert their independence, by
walking away from their mother, picking which toy to play with, and making choices about what
they like to wear, to eat, etc. Such skills illustrate the child's growing sense of independence and
autonomy. Erikson states it is critical that parents allow their children to explore the limits of
their abilities within an encouraging environment which is tolerant of failure.
During this stage, toddlers and preschool-aged children begin to experiment with urine and
feces. The control they learn to exert over their bodily functions is manifested in toilet-training.
Improper resolution of this stage, such as parents toilet training their children too early, can
result in a child who is uptight and overly obsessed with order.
Chippy wasnt toilet trained by any of his parents. They didnt think that the child would
need this much of this attention. They just left him to learn on his own. They also didnt
frequently talk with him because they are mostly away. But whenever the father comes home
drunk, he would scold at his children and wife and find faults about them. This would result to a
tendency for the child to feel inadequate in their ability to survive, and may then become overly
dependent upon others, lack self-esteem, and feel a sense of shame or doubt in their abilities.
Pre-school (3-5 years old)
Initiative vs. Guilt
Phallic Stage
INITIATIVE
Initiative vs. Guilt
Phallic Stage
During this period the primary feature involves the child regularly interacting with other
children at school. Central to this stage is play, as it provides children with the opportunity to
explore their interpersonal skills through initiating activities. If given this opportunity, children
develop a sense of initiative and feel secure in their ability to lead others and make decisions
According to Freud, the child would also begin to struggle with sexual desires toward the
opposite sex parent (boys to mothers and girls to fathers). For boys, this is called the Oedipus
complex, involving a boy's desire for his mother and his urge to replace his father who is seen as
a rival for the mothers attention. This is resolved through the process of identification, which
involves the child adopting the characteristics of the same sex parent.
Chippy at this time was often left around to play with other children. He was fond of
playing with his neighbors and his mother just let him be. He was mostly the leader of the group.
He wasnt provided with toys but he plays whatever is available. He was able to initiate activities
with his friends. Because of this, Chippy will develop a sense of initiative and feel secure in his
ability to lead others and make decisions. Chippy was also described as a quiet child. When he
makes mistakes, his mother would just calmly reprimand him but his father would scold him. His
mother verbalized ginapasagdan lang man nako na sila sauna ako ra sturyahan. Iyaha papa ang
grabe mangasaba og mandapat.
School Age (6-12 years old)
Industry vs. Inferiority
Latency Stage
INDUSTRY
Industry vs. Inferiority
Latency Stage
Industry versus inferiority is the fourth stage of Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial
development. It is at this stage that the childs peer group will gain greater significance and will
become a major source of the childs self-esteem. Teachers begin to take an important role in the
childs life as they teach the child specific skills.
Chippy started school at age 6 but stopped when he was in Grade 3. He never showed
interest in his studies and always gets in trouble in school. He was described as bugoy-bugoy
and would always get into fights. His classmate would look up to him as verbalized by the
mother as magpalaban dayon na sila kay Chippy kung naa pud silay kaaway. Even so, Chippy
has lots of friends and was always with them playing taksi, jolen, and they would also climb
trees to get fruits. Sometimes he would cheat in their game thats why he would get into fights
again. When his father would know about this, the father would right away confront the rival and
would eventually get into fight with their fathers. The mother would again and again reprimand
Chippy to stop getting into fights but Chippy was hard headed. At the age of 12 his father died. It
was also in this stage that he started to work as a tigbantay at his Lolas billiard place to help
family earn a living. In the end Chippy tried to use his skill to do something productive such as
getting a job. This makes him feel industrious and feel confident in his ability to achieve goals.
Adolescence (13-18 years old)
Identity vs. Role Confusion
Genital Stage
Wants to be independent
He worked as a bus/jeep
conductor
At age 14 he started to
masturbate
At 15 he started
drinking alcohol and
used shabu
ROLE CONFUSION
Identity vs. Role Confusion
Genital Stage
Up until this fifth stage, development depends on what is done to a person. At this point,
development now depends primarily upon what a person does. An adolescent must struggle to
discover and find his or her own identity, while negotiating and struggling with social
interactions and fitting in, and developing a sense of morality and right from wrong.
During this genital stage, sexual impulses reemerge. If other stages have been
successfully met, adolescents engage in appropriate sexual behavior, which may lead to marriage
and childbirth.
Chippy started to move out of their home to live with his employer and be independent
when he was 13 years old. He started to masturbate when he was 14 by watching porn videos
with friends. He then became influenced with alcohol at the age of 15 and the use of shabu. He
also frequently goes to beerhouses with friends. At the same time, he was working as a bus
conductor and eventually a jeep conductor. He didnt have any girlfriend at this time although he
has lots of textmates and crushes.
Young Adulthood (18-35 years old)
Intimacy vs. Isolation
Genital Stage
Used marijuana at 19
yrs old
Continued to work as
conductor
Non-compliance to medication
ISOLATION
Intimacy vs. Isolation
Genital Stage
At the young adult stage, people tend to seek companionship and love. Some also begin
to settle down and start families, although seems to have been pushed back farther in recent
years. Young adults seek deep intimacy and satisfying relationships, but if unsuccessful,
isolation may occur. Significant relationships at this stage are with marital partners and friends.
This is the last stage of Freud's psychosexual theory of personality development and
begins in puberty. It is a time of adolescent sexual experimentation, the successful resolution of
which is settling down in a loving one-to-one relationship with another person in our 20's.
Sexual instinct is directed to heterosexual pleasure, rather than self pleasure like during the
phallic stage.
Chippy was influenced by his uncle to use marijuana when he was 19. He had his first
girlfriend when he was 20 yrs old. They were together for around 6 months and maintained
communication through texting. They broke up eventually because chippy verbalized that he
didnt understand himself anymore. He continued to have textmates and crushes. There was one
time that he was brought to a barhouse by his employer. His employer paid a prostitute for him
there. He had his first sexual intercourse with the prostitute but he said that he wasnt able to
come. He had not experience any more sexual encounters until now. He continued to use
marijuana. He continued to use marijuana but denies it when confronted by his mother. He still
drinks a lot in beerhouses.
Over time he became aggressive and not himself anymore everytime he gets drunk. He
found it hard to sleep and people noticed a change in his behavior. This prompted his mother to
consult in a private clinic in Arakan. He was given unrecalled medications but was stopped after
his follow up check-up, thinking he is already well. His symptoms recurred that prompted
consult in SPMC-IPBM.
After he was discharged from his first and second admission, he stayed in Maa, Davao
with his family. He was then able to spend time with them. He became fond of the little children
in their neighborhood too. Over time he became uneasy for not being able to provide for his
family thats why after his 3rd admission he went back to Arakan to work. There he became too
busy with his work especially when their jeep broke off in the middle of the road. He usually
skips meal during his work because he was too busy. His mother encouraged him to go back in
Davao for follow up check up but he didnt go. He had a relapsed thats why he was admitted
again for the 4th time. After he was discharged from his fourth admission, he went back to
Arakan again to help his family. He becomes worried everytime his family will encounter a
financial difficulty such as a notice for disconnection in their electric bill thats why he wants to
go back to work. But this time, he worked as a kargador in a corn farm. He had a hard time
working there because people thought that his illness is communicable. After a few months he
went back to Davao to stay with his family.

Evaluation
This study has brought us a mind opening experience. It has helped us further enhanced
our knowledge on how to care for a patient who is experiencing any form of mental disorder.
Psychiatric Nursing exposure and this case study helped us to see the reality of life which
is very significant tool as we continue our quest to become young professional nurses in the
future.
It has opened our eyes to appreciate life and being thankful to our parents, friends, and
clinical instructors who had helped us mold to what we are now and what we will be in the
future.
As we go along with our studies or this particular case,we had met the objectives which
enables us to think that this case study was mad successfully. We identified the patient's problem
which entailed us to do the nursing care plan specifically the interventions which are set in our
minds that we can have it for our future use. We had assessed the patient that we had, which we
had come up better understanding on his situation.
Truly, we were thankful for this wonderful experience. An experience worth nourishing
and will be printed in our minds till life-everlasting.
