Key legal question
Whether the depressive episode and pain syndrome constituted an invalidizing health impairment under disability insurance law
Extracted holding
The depressive episode was not an independent psychiatric illness of significant severity, duration, or intensity; the pain syndrome remained deemed overcomeable by reasonable effort.
Extracted reasoning
The court relied on the interdisciplinary expert report and found no substantial psychiatric comorbidity. The depression was seen in connection with the fibromyalgia-type pain disorder, and the relevant criteria from the case law on somatoform pain disorders were not met.
