No I think you're right.
There is lots to be said for crappy life conditions (job, food, air quality, water quality etc) on depression symptoms. That being said, I do believe there can be a genetic component (which interacts with the environment).
My mother has severe bipolar and can be pretty bad at times. She left her job (teaching) but still suffered several severe mood episodes afterwards. Some of this was having children. However, she's 70 now and still only sleeps about 4 hours a night. The other 20 hours are spent cleaning, or gardening (very little rest).
