Is it anxiety or depression?
Physicians are often confronted with the problem of differentiating between depression and anxiety. In accumulated data on 500 patients with subsequent diagnosis and successful treatment of primary depression, only a few had had a tentative diagnosis of depression rather than anxiety. Failure to differentiate between depression and anxiety results in inappropriate and ineffective treatment.
