about the police and authorities. His care coordinator at the time Goodie told me that Mr
Cordell has always expresses conspiracy theories about the system including the police and
the council.
Mr Cordell was pleasant on approach and he remembers seeing me previously which help to
establish a rapport.

Appearance & behaviour:

Mr Cordell was appropriately dressed and his personal hygiene appears relatively good

Speech:

His speech appears slightly pressured and rapid, he was coherent and spontaneous, he was
easily interrupted whilst talking. He has lots of ideas of some of his activities that he is
involving like organising parties, setting up charities and helping people in the community.

Mood:

He rated his mood fluctuating, subjectively hyperactive from school. He denied feeling low or
depressed.
Thought:

Mr Cordell has presented with paranoid and suspicious view about the police and the council
working together to suppress him with an ASBO, preventing him to undertake his activities
like parties on the park and other activities.
Perception:

Mr Cordell denied hearing voices or having delusional perceptions. However, he has some
paranoid and conspiracy ideas about the police and council but these are not psychotically
driven. Mr Cordell seems to have an paranoid personality which can led to overvalued ideas.

Insight: intact

To self: denied any thoughts or intentions of self

To others: Poses risk to authorities like the council staff due to the nature of his arrest,
however, he does not pose any immediate to a members of the public.
