Abstract
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.Keywords
