Postpartum Depression
Licensed Professional Counselor, Masters, Marriage and Family Therapy; Licensed Professional Counseling
Postpartum depression is a very real disorder which can wreck lives and even lead to suicide or homicide. It will occur after 30 days, possibly months after birthing our children, and can swallow us up. It is not like the lesser depression and anxiety that normally follows birth but is short lived; and it requires counseling, and even at times-medication to recover.

Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It is important that your provider asks the right questions. Often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.
