Your Response To Stress
Inherited From: Father, Mother
Note: Your responses in the face of adversity can be inherited
Have you ever noticed how you react when confronted with adversity or a problem? Do you go into shock, scream in fright, cry, or immediately fight to resolve the situation? According to science, your response to stress and difficult conditions is determined by the genes you inherited from your parents rather than by your own individuality. However, there is no guarantee that you will have the same stress-reduction practices as your parents, whether positive or negative. Various environmental and developmental factors might influence your stress response, and it may even vary as you progress through life.

Your Mental Health
Inherited From: Father, Mother, Grandmother
Note: Symptoms and onset of mental health conditions can be based on genetics
Mental health has become a buzzword in recent years, particularly as Generation Z enters the workforce. Strange as it may appear, your mental health is a hereditary feature that you acquire not just from your mother and father, but even from close family members such as your grandmother! Although your parents, like the baby boomers, may claim to have had no mental health issues during their lifetime, research has shown that this is not the case. Genetic factors influence your self-esteem, drive, ability to love yourself, and vulnerability to mental health issues, but environmental and developmental situations also play an important effect. So, the next time someone cruelly mocks your mental health, remind them that you got it from them!
