Melancholia: Physical underpinnings
- Individuals suffering from melancholia report a family history of "depression," bipolar disorder, or suicide.
- Melancholy is biologically underpinned rather than caused by external stressors or psychological factors, such as personality type.
- Treatment consists of antidepressant drugs and electroconvulsive therapy (which is rarely needed.)
