I don’t know anyone that does so I don’t know how I got it. My cousins daughter has bipolar though not sz. she’s doing really well for herself.

Your parents can be carriers of inactive sz genes. No one in my family or distant family has a mental illness.

I’m the only one in my family that I know of that has schizophrenia. I guess its possible I inherited the disorder somehow or perhaps my DNA contains a new genetic mutation that gave it to me, or it could be environmental from smoking pot or stress induced or something else. I really don’t know.

No one in my family has schizophrenia but what makes me suspicious is that there are 2 mentally ill/schizophrenic people living in the village where I’m from. We are very distant relatives

My sister also has schizophrenia,

She’s a successful costume designer.

I also have an uncle who shot himself that I suspect had it too,

But we’ll never know.

Peaceful.

My husband is struggling with it still,

So am I, a little.

But overall, the house has been quiet and nice.

It’s a relief not being a caretaker anymore.

There’s a chance you can get schizophrenia if you’re related to anyone who is bipolar.

No one in my family has sz except me. Other than depression and anxiety I’m the only one with mental illness.
