It seems that depression is strongly related to genetic and hereditary issues (to have disorder on brain chemical process that leads to an emotional disorder), although other elements can also influence on it and it can also happen to people with no case of depression in their close heritage. I see people in a very bad situation (health and economic problems) which are happy and look to feel well while many people with good physical health and good economic situation which are sad and depressed. It is not only external issues that matter, but how people see and evaluate the situation and problems.

All people on my aunts and uncles of mother's side had or still have problems with depression and anxiety disorder. It comes specifically from one of my grandfathers. Even one of his aunts suicided. Almost all my cousines that descend from this same grandfather have emotional problems or even depression since adolescence.

It is clearly a hereditary problem that condemn the descendants to suffer from it. I am pretty convinced people which a such hereditary problem (not only in case of depression) that has very high possibility to develop such disorder in their sons and descendants should to not have sons, to stop turning it over to next generations. I know all we can have a lot hereditary disorders that we even not imagine we can have (generally they rarely develop in most people), but I mean those hereditary problems which clearly were inherited by each generation and very problably their sons will also suffer from it.

I don't want to have children due to it. And if I want to have, I could adopt a kid in an orphanage. I think it is a case of awareness and wanting the better others.
