One way that I've heard Martin Seligman describe that difference that you're talking about is being "below the line" and "above the line," where that line is mental health. So, he says, psychiatry and psychology as usual can help people get from -5 to -2 if they already have mental health issues and positive psychology can help a person get from 0 to 2 or 2 to 4, etc. Thanks for the interesting post.
