That's the crux of it, right there. You can't see how a psychological condition usually predicated on chemical imbalance could alter someone's mental state to the point that they would do something they wouldn't ordinarily do. I'm guessing that's probably because you've never experienced it.
The fact is, clinical depression and other psychological disorders DO cause erratic behavior and actions that the sufferer would never contemplate were it not for the disorder. I don't know how to say it any plainer. They DO. Whether or not you can understand why they do or what that's like doesn't change that fact. I've never experienced it personally, but I've seen it happen in others.
