Answer: Recommend further assessment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Psychologists can usually tell if you have depression by asking you specific questions and doing a physical exam. Psychologists may, however, ask for lab tests to rule out other diagnoses. They will likely do blood tests to check for medical conditions that may cause depressive symptoms.
