Hi everyone,

I am somewhat bitter about having inherited the illnesses from past generations in my family. I have received Temporal Lobe Epilepsy from my mother's side, and depression, anxiety, and OCD from my father's side. I'm also the first ever in my family to have Bipolar Disorder. I have two siblings who do not have any of this. I am by NO means saying that I wish they had these illnesses...I just wish that I could have avoided them as well.

There is also Crohns Disease in my family, and cancer. I have the mindset that since I tend to be the illness magnet in the family, I'll end up getting these illnesses too.

Can anyone relate? =/
