The problem is that psychological disorders are not deterministic from the genes but depend on a vast plethora of factors from biology, to psychological, to social. Also, they are often so polygenetic that altering a single gene wouldn't do much. You'd have to modify a great part of the genome, which would affect all sorts of things.
