Thank you. Not being a sufferer, at least not at this time, I was hoping for a discussion of both by those that suffer.
Exo, by itself, can be self limiting, (i.e. death of a loved one) a depression that can be expected but often abates on it's own. I have experienced this.
Exo on a continuing basis (i.e. long term suffering of a physical disease for which there is no cure) can lead to an endo like state.
Endo has the ability to alter perceptions of situations where exo does not.
Endo when confronted with exo may exacerbate or have no effect on the endo.
Both endo and exo can be treated with the same modalities.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
