Is schizophrenia genetic?

Depression and anxiety in my family. One of my cousins has sz

Its not genetic for me. Very weird.

I think my mum has undiagnosed depression. She spends most of her time in bed.

Well my mother has schizophrenia and bipolar. But these are details that I would rather keep private and not share on a public forum. But I’ll say it anyway.

My dad exhibits paranoia and mood problems but is otherwise high-functioning. My mom has a diagnosis of psychotic depression. My grandma on my dad’s side had some form of psychosis but refused to seek help. A grandfather several generations back on my mom’s side spent some time in an institution following a “nervous breakdown”.
