Help translating a psych letter?

I was copied into a rather confusing and poorly written letter by my psychiatrist, not helped by the fact that English is not her first language, and I was just hoping someone would be able to help me make a bit more sense of it. I would ask her myself, but she is impossible to get hold of.
I was just wondering what these two terms mean -
"avoidance/anxious personality trait" (referenced with regards to a risk of developing it - didn't realise you 'developed' traits, I thought that you just had them?)
"biological features of depression".
Any help would be hugely appreciated. x

i think "biological features" means things like lack of appetite and poor sleep, as opposed to mood things. could be wrong though.

I think that this means that you are allowing your 'trait' to grow/get more severe, i think youre right with the fact that we are already born with our traits, but its our daily lives and backgrounds that gives us reason to develop or bring out the traits within us.

Possibly? :)

and ''biological features of depression''
I believe that 'waiting_in_the_dark' is right, that it's talking about your physical signs and well being..

Hope i helped? :)

Biological = appetite, sleep, migraines etc
Psychological = feelings, emotions.
