That was me!
No one in my immediate family or grandparents, maybe not even aunts or uncle's have bipolar or bipolar2. But one of my blood cousins has bipolar and another blood cousin has maybe schizophrenia or bipolar (he suffers severe delusional thinking and paranoia without meds) both actually require meds. But my family as a whole do have various issues with depression and whatever else they dont talk about. Mom is diagnosed with major depression.
So, I dunno. I don't exactly fit the hereditary point.
