POSTPARTUM MOOD DISORDERS

What it can feel like?

  • “It feels scary or out of control.”

  • “It feels like I’m never going to be myself again.”

  • “Each day is a hundred hours long. Does every other mother feel joy except me?”

  • “No one gets it”  

  • “I don't think my marriage can survive this.”  

  • “I’m a bad mother.”

  • “It feels like I should never have had this baby.”  

  • “If I slept everything would be better.”

  • “It feels like I have no patience for anything anymore.”

  • “It feels like anger or rage!" 

  • “Maybe I will always feel like this.”

  • "It feels like I'm not bonding with my baby."

3 things to always remember:

1. You are not alone

2. You are not to blame for what you are feeling

3. You are safe and can feel like yourself again with help
