My Son Had Positional Plagiocephaly When He Was Born. His

My son had positional plagiocephaly when he was born. His fontanels were completly closed when he was 4 months old. He was seen by a pediatric neurosurgeon and was placed in a helmeborn 4 t to prevent the suture lines from closing.
He is 19 yr old now and has severe depression, anxiety and numerous OCD problems. I believe I took Zofran while I was pregnant with him. He was also born 4 weeks early and I was on complete bedrest for 5 weeks due to preterm labor.
Could any of these things have contributed to his mental illness now, oh and he is also bipolar?

Thanks ,
