How to Add Medical Conditions to a Genogram (Illness, Mental Health, Substance Use)

Add health information in GenogramAI: select a person, open Medical in the Inspector and pick a condition. By default GenogramAI uses classic shading: physical and mental illness fill the left half of the symbol, and alcohol or drug use fills the bottom half. Mark each condition active, in recovery or suspected. Prefer one color per condition?

How do you show health conditions on a genogram? Select the person, and open Medical in the panel. Pick a condition.

By default, GenogramAI uses classic shading. Physical and mental illness fill the left half of the symbol. Alcohol or drug use fills the bottom half.

Mark each condition active, in recovery, or suspected. Prefer one color per condition? Switch to quadrants, and each condition gets its own corner.

Every condition is listed in the key, by color. Or just ask AI: Frank had depression. And it's on his symbol.
