Discussion Forum #2: Theoretical Perspectives- How do we explain the causes of psychological experience

After reading the relevant pages, please respond to the following discussion prompt:

Marie has been feeling “down in the dumps” for the past several months. She has been feeling extremely sad most of the time, has difficulty focusing on tasks, and has been withdrawing from friends and family. She feels hopeless about the future and has low self-esteem. Marie’s therapist has diagnosed her with depression.

Please select a minimum of TWO different theoretical perspectives (e.g., biological, psychodynamic, cognitive, humanistic, behavioral, evolutionary) you read about and discuss how each would explain the causes of Marie’s depression. For example, what would the biological perspective say about what might be causing Marie’s symptoms?
