>Is there any way to tell the difference between a biogenic depression and a psychogenic depression?
Does it in practice matter?
If biogenic depression cannot easily be cured by drugs, and if psychogenic depression cannot easily be cured by therapy.........
And then again, if biogenic depression could be helped by therapy and psychogenic depression could be helped by drugs.........
Maybe I don't understand the mind/body thing well. I assume that anyone in distress has some biological corresponding disorder, if we knew how to find it.
