Is depression heredity?!?!
Question: Is depression heredity!?!!?
Answers:
The tendency to develop depression may be inherited; there is some evidence that this disorder may run in families!. A 2004 press release from the National Institute of Mental Health declares "major depression is thought to be 40-70 percent heritable, but likely involves an interaction of several genes with environmental events!."

I believe it is because whenever I go to a new psychopharmocologist he always asks if anyone else in the family has depression or a mental problem!. Different members of my family have different mental problems!. They have not all been diagnosed but it is pretty obvious that something is not quite right about them!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
I am in no way an expert, but i have suffered in the past from clinical depression, so has my mother and my sister!. we were told that there can be a hereditary element to it, but if you have a family member with clinical depression, you are not therefore doomed to also be affected by the condition!.
