Just read your post in that link, it's a good one. I believe that many of mental illness do result from a genetic predisposition to some sort of brain disorder. Still, I believe that in most cases, this genetic predisposition develops to be something that is so crippling and disruptive because of the lack of nurture or the presence of stress/trauma in early development and adolescence. This is even the case with illnesses such as schizophrenia, where it may not have developed in the predisposed had there not been a trigger or triggers to set it in motion.
