Patients whose pain is particularly difficult to manage and who develop symptoms of clinical depression or adjustment disorder should be referred to a psychiatrist for diagnosis.
Depression symptoms can mimic a number of physical illnesses , and it is important that a medical assessment, including clinical tests and diagnosis, are made by your treating doctor/specialist.
The negative symptoms resemble the symptoms of clinical depression and about 40% of people diagnosed with schizophrenia also experience a depression.

Symptoms of clinical depression include insomnia; eating disturbances; physical aches and pains; difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions.
Because depression is so common, it is important to understand the difference between unhappiness or sadness in daily life and the symptoms of clinical depression.
As these symptoms deepen, grief may become clinical depression.
