Yes, I would hope there are better sources. If I want to know about a biological problem, then the last person I am going to ask is a psychologist/psychiatrist. If you want me to take that seriously, you'd better come up with a much more credible source (and I doubt that my hankles could be defined as "easily raised" if that is your source). Please understand that the reason I say this is because your assertion is in the extreme minority, I personally have never heard anyone posit the theory that Alzheimer's is a psychological disease, so the onus really is on you to back that up.

If you really want to know what we know about Alzheimner's, for instance, I suggest you read this. Similar resources exist for each of those conditions I mentioned and are quite easily found.
