My father's DNA is strong because he received the original "manic depressive" diagnosis. So, I got it and one of my brother's got it. My sister has Depression. I'm sure of it.
Also, I grew up with a father that didn't take his diagnosis seriously and caused a lot of dysfunction/abuse in the house. So, I'd say most of my diagnosis is genetic and my environment played a part too, but maybe lesser.
