A member asked:
Help plz! can schizophrenia develop due to environmental factors alone without a genetic predisposition?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Psychosis: Psychosis can have different roots and some cases might look very similar to some Schizophrenia(s). But even they may have some predispositional contribution. As far as I've ever heard - Sz does have at least a significant genetic element. Best!
