Because mental disorders are not a simple matter. We can figure out how to prevent, kill, or at least manage a bacterium or a virus by doing it in a petri dish and/or a lab animal. We can figure out a problem that's caused by a malfunctioning organ that has a relatively straightforward purpose. But the brain's function can't be tested by a blood test or an electronic imaging test, because it's so incredibly complex and interconnected with itself in so many different directions that we can't simply pin down what is working incorrectly and why.
