i'm not completely sure... but it might be that there is something different about the nature of the distress. some distress seems to result from loss / lack of physiological arousal / SGR. some states of depression. other distress seems to result from heightened physiological arousal / SGR. i think the former... are more likely to 'plan and then execute' a suicide, for instance, whereas the latter... are more likely to impulsively maim themselves. i think the former are more likely to not seek help, too, whereas the latter are. slightly different states, i think... but then i don't really know.

i think the latter arousal states have to do with some kind of relational trauma or something... such that they are responsive to empathy from others (to a certain extent). i don't know... raving most probably...
