B. Infection as a risk factor for schizophrenia is limited to the fetal environment.

C. Uncontrolled gestational diabetes experienced by a mother dramatically affects neural growth in the fetus.

D. If a woman suffers from high blood pressure during pregnancy, the risk of the child's developing schizophrenia later in life increases dramatically.

The answer is A. Prenatal exposure to infections and diseases such as influenza, rubella, toxoplasmosis, and herpes has been linked to increased risk of schizophrenia.

Asmara I understand how you feel. I have suffered from depression myself for three decades. Did you know it’s often genetic? Someone else in your family suffers as well. There is help though. Through therapy and sometimes medications, you can find relief. The first step is to know you’re not alone and find someone whom you can talk to. You need a support system. Journaling can be therapeutic as well. Most of the time a person with depression needs to realize why they are mostly depressed and come up with coping strategies to get past this feeling. When you think you can’t get over it- you can. Over 50% of human beings suffer from anxiety and depression at some point in their life. Don’t try to battle this on your own; confide in a friend or adult who you can trust.
