Lynn,
It's a hard question. I've battled with that one ever since I started battling with this "mental (or spiritual" battle myself.I think it's a tough call (and an individual call). I think there are times this is simply physical (chemical). But there is no doubt that the enemy can and will use the "physical" to destroy us mentally and spiritually if he can.
So for me, what I have concluded is that although I shouldn't overspiritualize every battle I face- I need to remember the reality that I do HAVE AN ENEMY that seeks to destroy me any way he can. So regardless if the battle is physical/mental/spiritual- I have to fight it spiritually to make sure it doesn't interfere with my walk with the Lord.
Does that make sense?? ROFL
