While this may be true for Bi-Polar disorder (I'm not as familiar with this), there are some mental disorders that do display as differences in the brain (such as ADHD).

However, while these differences can't be rectified with medication or other therapies (yet), the side effects of these differences can be ameliorated by medication.
