3. Genetics
The connection between schizophrenia and your genetic predisposition is unbelievable! And if you have at least one case of this disease in your family, chances are you will develop it as well. The likelihood that someone may experience the symptoms of schizophrenia is influenced by genetic predisposition, just like it is with other physical and mental health issues.
This has substantial statistical backing. For instance, according to several studies, you have a 10% probability of getting schizophrenia if your brother, sister, or one parent has the condition; if both parents have been diagnosed, your chances increase to 13%. You have a roughly 50% chance of acquiring schizophrenia if your identical twin has the condition. However, your chance of getting schizophrenia increases to 40% if both of your parents have it.
