Everything in the mind is biologically mediated. That doesn't make every mind problem a disease.

[reverius42]

Doesn't it? Replace the word "mind" with "body" and it seems like the very definition of disease.

[mr_tyzic]

By that argument, if you're grieving the loss of a loved one, deciding whether to marry, struggling to write a novel, or even fixing a bug in a computer program, you have a disease. All those presumably have some biochemical correlate.

"Everything in the mind is biologically mediated"

Proof of that?

[mr_tyzic]

No proof, but I meant an implicit "even if you assume that" at the start of the comment.
