Mental health is a combination of genetics, upbringing and experience. For example, if someone is genetically predisposed to depression (maybe an auntie, uncle, parent, sibling or grandparent has it) and they go though a stressful situation, experience a major loss or are abused growing up, they are more likely to develop depression than someone who is predisposed but doesn't experience a stressful situation.
