Legends: OR Odds ratio, CI Confidence interval, MDD Major depressive disorder, Anxiety = Any anxiety disorder W1–2 (Panic disorder, agoraphobia without panic, specific phobias, social phobia and/or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)). Standard errors were obtained from the robust estimator in Stata, accounting for cluster-effects among twins

Men and women were collapsed in the analyses to increase statistical power. All analyses were adjusted for age in wave 1
