I'm not sure about depression be hereditary but I'm sure that social anxiety can be hereditary.

There's at least 4 people in my family that have severe social anxiety.

Prolonged anxiety can easily trigger depression. In order to prevent this, it is necessary to take measures of proper therapy in time. Modern doctors advise to use cbd for vapes 300 mg to quickly restore peace of mind and get rid of annoying experiences.
