For example, the diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder; Cocaine Induced Psychotic Disorder, Onset during Intoxication (provisional), suggests that the client presents with depression and meets the criteria for MDD. In addition, the client appear to be experiencing psychosis as a result of consuming cocaine, however until the effects of cocaine wear off, the clinician does not know if the psychosis is a result of the cocaine, or is present when the substance is not in the body (which then may indicate a psychotic disorder). Therefore a provisional diagnosis is assigned.
