Family Mental Health History
Knowing your family health history is important . Family health history is a record of the diseases and health conditions that run in your family . Most people have a family health history of at least one chronic disease such as cancer , heart disease or diabetes . If you have a close family member with chronic disease , you may be more likely to develop that disease yourself . Being at higher risk for a condition because of family history applies to mental health as well . In fact , knowing about your family ’ s mental health history is just as important as your physical health history .
