Epigenetics of anxiety and stress–related disorders

Epigenetics of anxiety and stress–related disorders is the field studying the relationship between epigenetic modifications of genes and anxiety and stress-related disorders, including mental health disorders such as generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), and more. These changes can lead to transgenerational stress inheritance.
