because of fatigue 
and increasing difficulty in her daily functioning
over the past 2 
months. During the day, she lies in bed for hours and
cries. She has had a 
10.9-kg (24-lb) weight loss over the past 4 weeks,
eats only cookies, 
has lost interest in almost everything, and wishes to
kill herself. Her 
husband died 4 months ago. Physical examination and
laboratory studies 
show normal findings except for decreased serum
albumin and total 
protein levels. Which of the following is the most
likely diagnosis?

A
) Adjustment disorder with depressed mood
