Thats so good that your father understands, and i'm glad that you had the courage and strength to tell him. It is true that depression is hereditary. Its more common to have, if other members of your family have it too. But some types of depression can occur without being hereditary, like depression from post traumatic stress. Good luck seeing your doctor and I hope so much that he will be able to help you!
i agree just hang in there and it will be all worth while!
