    I’m not sure it says, but:

    Major depression, 72%
PTSD, 57%
Bipolar disorder, 61%
Panic disorder, 50%
Phobic anxiety, 70%
Schizophrenia, nearly 100%

    …suggests that schizophrenia is 2x more dangerous for heart health than panic disorder. So at the very least, some may be much ‘safer’ than others.
