[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worry about MY genes. My DH's family are all kind, sane, and super smart and accomplished. My family has mental illness - mostly depression and anxiety. Naturally I do not wish this for my kids. [/quote] One side has anxiety and depression but never saw any doctors for it. We did and it stemmed from AdHD— not knowing why you’re constantly forgetting, failing, losing things, getting fired or messing up work, or called too unreliable/untrustworthy to get something done all took a big toll on each person. They just never pieced it together. The matriarch of the family chalked it up to “no common sense” or “they don’t multitask” or “that’s for women to do”, and kept bailing everyone out. [b]Very much treatable. Getting people to a doctor and going over their shortcomings, often not so simple.[/b][/quote] +1 [/quote]
