Postpartum Depression| untold anxiety

Postpartum depression



Depression is a mental disorder we have discussed about many times. Postpartum depression is something that has not been discussed and people may not aware about it's symptoms, severity and criticalness. 

The depression prior to giving birth. Usually we don't talk about it because we don't take it as serious condition. Women who suffer from postpartum depression really don't know what's going on with them and why?. 

I have recently explore, when I go through this condition that postpartum depression needs treatment, family support and understanding.

 Any woman regardless of age, ethnicity, race and culture may go through from this mood disorder or symptoms. 

Baby means everything for a mother but on the other side responsibility, constant worry about the baby, 24/7 care of baby becomes the part of mother. 


This is a condition of overwhelm anxiety, felling is sadness and tendency to isolate.

 Mother's couldn't relax and sleep properly leading to more health and mental issues.

Sometime people say alot of stuff that disturb a woman like you are not slim anymore, you look so tired all the time, your room is a mess, why your baby cry so much, you don't care about your body, hygiene, beauty, etc. Family members, friends may not realize the mental toughness of a mother.

All she need is words full of motivation, positivity and support.

These symptoms fade away with the passage of time and also when woman start her normal routine activities.

If the symptoms become severe and one can't hold it anymore, please seek counseling or visit a psychologist.

Regular sessions with the counselor will help the mother or client. Treatment plan for the client will be based on medication, psychological treatment and social support. It is important for those who learn and understand different psychological conditions , they should create awareness among others about the psychological condition.
