Abstract
If both samples are comparable in terms of stress or severity of depression, patients admitted through emergencies have relatives who are more supportive and more adaptable! How can we explain why they did not consult before? We propose the hypothesis that physicians and families would be exceeded or overloaded with symptoms they thought they could contain, forcing them at this point to request an urgent care of the pathology. On the contrary patients with environments which are less cohesive and adaptable would be redirected earlier to specialised consultation.
