I do not think it's really no good way to answer this question. Psychoactive drugs can be successfully used to stabilize individuals with both mood disorders and psychotic disorders, with a high success rate. However, in no case Psychopharm actually "cure" the disease. You can have a clinically significant symptoms, increase or remove the general functioning of the person, but with few exceptions, the cessation of the medication could cause a relapse of symptoms. So might as well argue that they do not, especially in the "treatment" of the disease. To make matters even more complicated, the mood in May is very similar to psychotic disorders.

You can reach some kind of answer to your question, if the specific drugs tested its effectiveness against certain genotypes of neurological disorders. Aspects, which eliminates the confusion of two very different symptoms caused by abnormal underlying neuronal.

Finally, we must examine the "how" of the TTREATMENT. As currently drafted, there are many drugs and therapeutic techniques, including the mechanisms that we do not understand. We know, for example, SSRIs can be successfully treated a variety of disorders of mood, but I do not know how. The same holds true for most antipsychotics. We have ideas, but not much in the way of a sound understanding of the involved neurodynamics.

So really, I do not think your question can be answered.

It depends on the disease. And do not forget the difference between "treatment" and healing. Psychosis have been able to live on antipsychotic drugs and the person, a relatively "existence" normal case, the use of drugs that improve the lives of patients. Affective disorders, in particular the classification as "neuroses" more of a need psychotherapy mate change of status to avoid the presentation.

Good question ... I'm not sure.

Certainly, the mood and "thinking" by the impairment of cognitive therapy can be helped (with some clinical depression, for example) are also using drugs. However, literature also shows that certain medicines for mood disorders in the psychosis can lead, not a good thing!

Some psychotic disorders (schizophrenia, can be treated, for example) (but not necessarily cured) by medicine alone. Some serious psychosis can be helped at all to talk therapy.

Given my uncertainty in this area, I hope other information.
