As I am only recently dx with BP1 forgive my ignorance.

Wondering if Bipolar/Schz/MDD is genetic, environmental or something else or both.

I feel that mine is definitely genetic it's there all 3 of the above, in all generations of my family on both sides . Its also passed down to the next generation. I feel the reason environmental comes into it is because of the illness in the first place. Family members unable to cope with illness hence environmental factors.

I am hoping to educate myself as much as possible, my dx came late I am 45yrs.

Thanks

Annmaria
