Claustrophobia, like many other phobias and anxiety disorders, can have a genetic component, meaning it may run in families. While specific genes linked to anxiety disorders have not been conclusively identified, research suggests that a predisposition to anxiety can be inherited. Additionally, environmental factors, such as upbringing and personal experiences, also play a significant role in the development of claustrophobia. Thus, while it may not be directly inherited, a combination of genetic and environmental influences can contribute to its occurrence.
