Depression，anxiety，mental disorderAbstract
This question discusses whether depression and anxiety can be addressed and concludes that they cannot. Firstly, the background of these two disorders is presented and then in the past they have not been properly addressed. As the society progressed, these problems intensified. I have presented several perspectives on the causes of these disorders and assessed why they cannot be addressed.
