[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 333207, member: 1514"] There is a saying that goes: Insanity isnt inherited, you get it from your kids. But in all seriousness, there is a huge genetic component to mental illness and neurological conditions. As we find out more about mental illnesses, we are going to find out that they are actually not "mental" illness but that they are all based on neurobiological conditions. Its all a physical medical condition. Already they are finding out that certain genes hold the keys for autism, bipolar and schizophrenia. Obviously with that information it leaves no doubt that if a parent has bipolar, it is no surprise that a child of that parent is at risk of having a condition that stems from that same gene. Just science. [/QUOTE]
