In reply to Bad Genes, posted by Toph on February 15, 2005, at 16:49:25
As the daughter of a depressed father who committed suicide, I don't feel any anger toward my dad for passing the gene on to me. I developed major depression after the birth of my second daughter and my oldest daughter has major depression. I feel terribly guilty for passing it on to her, even though when I had her, I had yet to experience major depression myself.
