IMDB "Walk the Line" states Joaquin Phoenix was hospitalized post filming WTL due to dealing with similarities with his life and Johnny Cash's. Specifically the passing of his brother River and Johnny Cash's brother. I suspect it was a mental hospital or psych ward due to the nature of the hospitalization. I think it could very well be a possibility of depression and post-traumatic-stress disorder.

During the scene where Cash learns of his brother's fatal accident in the Saw Mill factory, Phoenix started to bang his head against the bed post. He said he was getting into the role. I just know he was sent to the hospital for observation.

This was 2005 and years before "I'm Still Here"

Yes. The custody of a child is determined by the best interest of the child. If the court determines that the father is better for the child, he can get custody.

Yes, there is a statistical correlation that if someone in a family is diagnosed with a mental illness the probability is higher that others in the family will also have mental disorders (relative to a family with no known individuals with diagnosed mental illness). The cause of this correlation is unknown, but is believed to have both genetic and environmental contributions.
