Some forms of bipolar disorders have a genetic predisposition. You need to see a psychiatrist to find out. Manic Depressive disorder is usually the result of a biochemical dysfunction in the neurochemical system related to moods and sleep cycles.
Some cases are genes related some are not. Why not consult a phsychiatris or phsycologist to better diagnose your problem. Hope it will be alright.
Some mental health disorders are genetic, others are not. If you are feeling depressed, you might want to seek out a psychiatrist or psychologist.
The days when your aunt was institutionalized was very different than it is today. Your aunt may have been institutionalized by your uncle. At that time, a person didn't need a diagnosis or a true mental health problem like so many people think. All that was needed was a man to want to put her there. Then once instututionalized, the doctor could make a diagnosis upon his/her findings and if they couldn't come up with one, the term schizophrenia was used. And once someone got labeled with this term, it was nearly impossible to get it changed. At the time your aunt was institutionalized, Manic Depression was rarely used as a diagnosis. Things are much much better today. But there is still room for improvement.
