Definition of Mental illness is rather up for debate
The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

So you probably have superior skills in dodging controversies, well family drama trains us and when you have loonies in the house you got to be sharp and quick on your toes to respond, unless you break down and join them.
so is it depression, manic depression, schizophrenia, paranoid, psychopath, sociopath, all of them?

Well, my wife is bi-polar, manic depressive, OCD, occasionally agoraphobic (a few years back she could only leave the house to go to work), and has PTSD due to certain events in her life. Her daughter is bi-polar and probably a sociopath. She's serving a three years stint at Chowchilla for various drug offenses. My dad was OCD, my sister suffers from depression as does my mom. Both of my sisters in-law suffer from depression and are, to the best of my knowledge, bi-polar in varying degrees and, like my wife and for the same reasons, suffer from PTSD.So you probably have superior skills in dodging controversies, well family drama trains us and when you have loonies in the house you got to be sharp and quick on your toes to respond, unless you break down and join them.

And this just scratches the surface...
I'm the only person I know who doesn't have a crazy gene...
Oh, in regards to your alcoholic thread, more than a couple folks mentioned above are or were alcoholics.

Plant Parenthood.
Depression seems to run in the family, every few years another auntie/uncle/cousin is diagnosed.
And I once stumbled across court papers about my mum being institutionalized, though I've never asked about it so idk why it was.
If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.
