To make a differential diagnosis between depression, normal grieving, and pathological grief reactions is a common problem for family physicians. Patients often present to the family physician with physical symptoms, such as pain, headache, dizziness, fatigue, and disturbances of digestion and sleep, rather than psychological symptoms. Treatment modalities and effectiveness differ depending on specific diagnosis. The family physician is in a unique position to influence prevention, early detection, and morbidity of these disorders.
对家庭医生来说，鉴别诊断抑郁症、正常悲伤反应和病理性悲伤反应是一个常见问题。患者通常向家庭医生诉说身体症状，如疼痛、头痛、头晕、疲劳以及消化和睡眠障碍，而非心理症状。治疗方式和效果因具体诊断而异。家庭医生在影响这些疾病的预防、早期发现及发病率方面具有独特地位。
