Explanation:

As per epidemiological studies, a genetic factor is implicated in 30% to 40% of cases of bipolar disorder. Consequently, environmental factors play a greater role in the production of depression. Resilience and anxiety resistance are popular; thus, though during embryonic or perinatal period certain degree of stress may be received, having genetic disposition to mental illnesses does not mean the existence of a mental disorder.
