PPD develops around the time a woman gives birth. Women with PPD often struggle with anxiety, sadness, difficulty sleeping, or disturbing thoughts. Research suggests that it is triggered by changes in hormones and that women with PPD are sensitive to those changes. PPD occurs in approximately 15% of births.

The symptoms of postpartum depression highlight the complex relationship between the emotional scars from the past and the difficulties of becoming a new mother. Motherhood, with its roots in the intricate mechanics of attachment, can intensify the effects of previous traumas by bringing on emotions of inadequacy, overwhelm, and loneliness. Like a shadow cast over the joy of childbirth, postpartum depression envelops mothers in a fog of sadness and despair, echoing the unmet emotional needs and the scars of past hurts. Therapy becomes a lifeline amidst the turbulence, offering a space to navigate the complexities of motherhood, process the echoes of past traumas, and cultivate resilience in the face of profound change. By nurturing compassionate connections and fostering self-compassion, mothers can navigate the terrain of postpartum depression with greater grace, finding solace in shared humanity and forging a path towards healing and renewed maternal bonds.
