In hindsight, I think I had some PPD but I tried my best to hide it from everyone. I wish I had asked for help or confided in DH or anyone really, I think it would have made my postpartum experience much easier! I'll be bookmarking this in case I need it for next time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nyt-articlefeature-on-maternal-mental-illness#post-1704439 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 08:14:52 +0000 Bookish 1704439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://nyti.ms/UGOLhQ" rel="nofollow">http://nyti.ms/UGOLhQ</a></p> <p>As someone who struggled with PPD for about 8-9 months after my daughter's birth, I hope that articles like this will help others. There are resources out there, and I wish I had asked for help sooner! I didn't realize how bad it had gotten until the fog lifted.</p> <p>The article says, "stigma of maternal mental illness is strong, and admitting you’re struggling is hard." I hope that in time the stigma goes away so that those of us who suffer during or after pregnancy can feel comfortable reaching out for support.</p> <p> :heart: </p>
