I get so frustrated hearing people blaming genetics for their problems in life (mental, physical, etc.). We ALL probably have several "hardships" in our genes. But to use it as an excuse to not do anything about it, I don't get. And, isn't it more likely not just genetic, but also some of it bad habits and traditions that you were exposed to growing up?
CELEBRATE the good things that have been passed down in the genes and traditions, and DO SOMETHING about the bad (prevention is always the best). I knew addiction ran high in our genes, so I did not EVER try smoking, and I was exposed to so much smoking that I had dreams that I was a smoker too! However, I was not as successful with food addiction, but I don't blame my ancestors. I am trying to change things for my descendants.
