CMV: Many people use mental illness as a way to excuse/justify things that are not justified or can be excused otherwise. They are able to do so because its not possible to prove or demonstrate your depression or anxiety or pure O type ocd, like your viral fever can be proved or demonstrated.

I will look into the articles u shared. If you r talking about relationship then a correlation type relationship can't be a test.
Okay just give me a simple answer, If I give enough money to make any kind of tests to someone suffering from real depression, can he show some test results that proves( not some correlation type relation) his/her suffering.

Yes I have tried to do my research as far as I could, but that was of course not enough, that's why I am looking for some professional opinion here, someone who can change the view.

It would save my time If you point out the part of the article where I should look first. To view the full article I need time.

and please just because there are tons of research papers that doesn't mean that we understand it. There are tons of paper on quantum gravity which we don't understand.

PS I am not saying that depression is a conspiracy or fake thing.
