I think they are more alike than dislike in many instances. I "do" throwing up too and it is partly by that that I am diagnosed as having the flu. When I stop throwing up, I don't have it anymore. I "do" not being interested in life/getting out of bed/bathing and it is partly by that that I am diagnosed as having depression. When I get up and get going under my own will/steam, I don't have it anymore.

This is a faulty comparison because we can tell exactly who has the flu because we know how to identify strains of the flu virus. Yes, on an everyday basis your doctor might diagnosis the flu off symptoms, but researchers have identified the flu viruses that cause the flu in everyone. Researchers are yet to find that biomarker for mental illnesses.
