During the first five years of life, stress is a risk factor for depression, anxiety disorders, drug abuse, and many other medical conditions. But what if this crucial period of development begins even before birth, in the womb?</p><p class="p1">The ingredients of early childhood development are the genes that a child inherits and, in a process called epigenetics, the way the environment affects those genes, turning them off or on.

Twin studies, however, have shown there is more to it. Scientists believe epigenetics—the interaction of genes and the environment—is at play. Perhaps early trauma or illness can turn on specific genes, increasing a person’s risk of suicide. Until we unravel the biological mechanisms underlying suicide, it’s hard to fully understand, treat, or prevent it.</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-7bae4e2 elementor-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-button" data-id="7bae4e2" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="button.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <div class="elementor-button-wrapper"> <a class="elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm" href="https://www.libd.org/suicide"> <span class="elementor-button-content-wrapper"> <span class="elementor-button-text">Learn more</span> </span> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-190174e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child" data-id="190174e" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"jet_parallax_layout_list":[]}"> <div class="e-con-inner"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-4c58d05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image" data-id="4c58d05" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="image.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="583" src="https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-1024x583.jpg" class="attachment-large size-large wp-image-9128" alt="" srcset="https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-1024x583.jpg 1024w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-300x171.jpg 300w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-768x437.jpg 768w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-456x260.jpg 456w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-1152x656.jpg 1152w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-702x400.jpg 702w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-458x261.jpg 458w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-495x282.jpg 495w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-400x228.jpg 400w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-800x456.jpg 800w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-1250x712.jpg 1250w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-24x14.jpg 24w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-36x21.jpg 36w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide-48x27.jpg 48w, https://b33a61.a2cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/suicide.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="e-n-tab-content-435439348" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="e-n-tab-title-435439348" data-tab-index="8" style="--n-tabs-title-order: 8;" class=" elementor-element elementor-element-1bc625c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child" data-id="1bc625c" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"jet_parallax_layout_list":[]}"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-65592e5 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child" data-id="65592e5" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"jet_parallax_layout_list":[]}"> <div class="e-con-inner"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-dc2bf54 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="dc2bf54" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h4 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">Aging disorders</h4> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-6d77a5a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="6d77a5a" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p class="p1">People are living longer, and that means more time to enjoy the pleasures of one’s life—spending time with family, practicing beloved hobbies, studying topics of interest.

It can be devastating to those who suffer from it, harming their ability to sleep, giving them vivid, terrifying flashback-like memories of their trauma, causing anxiety attacks and making them feel numb to their surroundings. Doctors use antidepressants and talk therapy to treat the disorder.</p><p class="p1">Not everyone who suffers a trauma will experience PTSD. About seven or eight out of every 100 people will experience PTSD in their lifetime.
