How many people have asked that question? I have asked it from the time I learned I had depression. I pray that it is not because I do not want my children to develop it.

I did some research on the internet and wrote a blog on this subject matter. I discovered that genetics do play a part in depression but there are many other factors that play a role too. Go to my blog to learn about all the other factors and to learn whether depression is genetic or not.
