Cancer is not caused by depression and stress. No one knows exactly what causes cancer cells to 'turn on'. Depression and stress can, however, exacerbate any illness. Best to see a doctor for a full checkup and get a referral for treatment for the stress and depression.

Can you become depressed from eating unhealthy foods?

Depression is caused by a chemical imbalance. There are no foods, vitamins, or herbs which cause or cure it. However, when you're depressed, you don't take good care of yourself. It's common to eat unhealthy foods when depressed, and unhealthy eating can make you feel more tired and sluggish. So it does not make you depressed, but it does not make you feel any better, either. The best way to handle depression is to make yourself eat right and take care of yourself.

Is depression heretitary?

My experience has been that to some degree it is. Depression can be caused by a a chemical imbalance, and these imbalances can be passed from parent to child. You can also 'inherit' depression by imitating your parents' reactions to the things that make them depressed. So you can inherit your parents' habits. While one can inherit a chemical imbalance, you won't necessarily become depressed because nothing may trigger those things you have inherited. Also, you may be generally more happy and hopeful than your parents, or better at controlling your thoughts and feelings. There is a lot more than chemical imbalance and heredity that can cause depression. For example, temperament, stress, death, sadness, noise, etc. So if you are depressed, it is not necessarily due to your parents. My source is my life.
