I would never say it's "just" emotional, like I wouldn't say "just" a grief, or "just" a trauma. It's sad we have to consider something illness and pull "it's biological" out of arse (since there's no definite proof) for it to be taken seriously.
As far as I know there are biological factors that can factor into ones mental illness/disorder, it's certainly not the only factor but it's there along with any environmental and social factors that might have contributed.
Thanks for this!
