Actual psychiatrists do not distinguish much between so-called "situational" depression, vs some hypothetical "100% organic" depression. That seems to be rampant on Internet message boards for some reason. A psychiatrist will ask about your life circumstances a little bit, but if you have certain symptoms, whether you perceive them as externally caused or not, they will diagnose you with Major Depression, i.e. "clinical depression."
