[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 688902, member: 11791"] One theory I've heard about is that while depression may be caused by or made worse by our thinking, it can have its roots in a genuine chemical imbalance in the brain. And a chemical imbalance is something that can be solved, at least for some people. But anxiety is pretty much a thinking problem - not a chemistry problem. So medication can't solve it, only therapy can. Some medications can mute our response to the anxiety somewhat, or reduce the hormones and chemicals produced by anxiety to reduce some of the side-effects of it but... we're just treating symptoms, not cause.
