I found the article to be very intersting also. My family also has a lot of history with depression and anxiety. I had never thought of this until I read the article. It gives me a better understanding of why both have been in our family. I lost one brother to sucide at age 44 and I have one sister that has fought depression all of her life and both my parents, brothers, sister and myself suffer from anxiety. This article gave me a better understanding of why this is in our family. I feel pretty dumb because I never thought about other member of the family other than my parents being carriers or how it might affect all of us. It seems we tend to just think of the affects CAH has on the child that has it.

 

Thanks and Take Care,
