A member asked:
Can you inherit a mental illness from someone unrelated to you just by interacting with then and bring around then. or they trigger anger and more?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not "inherit": You can't inherit mental illness from someone unrelated to you. But it can be very stressful being around people with some types of mental disorders, and yes, this can lead to anger and other reactions in you. Some people are challenging to get along with, whether they have a diagnosed mental illness or not.
