Depression and other disorders are primarily described by being disproportionate responses to stimuli. The astronaut isn't clinically anxious being up at 2am before the launch, but if they were because they had to drive to the post office tomorrow that would be. That's not a world solving problem that's keeping them up at night, it's just trying to live. That's the difference.

Unless there would be something big at the office. Or they hated they job. Or they get burned out because it offers them no life-work balance and space for other activities and relationships outside of it.
In all cases above it's not the brain chemistry that you probably want to fix. But you probably can do just that..
