Yes, these are the 2 areas that need to be considered when making this decision. You can always do a trial and see what happens?

From everything that I have learned, for any disease you need the genetics for it and you need the environment. If either one is missing the chance for the disease is very low if at all.
I have seen many people, including myself, heal after they worked through the issues. I know that my environment caused my problems. Once I corrected the problems mental health became mine. I have seen it over and over again.
