Let's talk about
Post-Natal Depression
Post-natal depression (PND) is a type of depression that affects new parents after childbirth. It can cause overwhelming sadness, exhaustion, and difficulty bonding with the baby. While mood changes are common after birth, post-natal depression is more intense and persistent, making everyday tasks feel challenging. PND can affect any new parent, regardless of prior mental health history.
Key characteristics of post-natal depression include:
Persistent low mood, tearfulness, or feelings of emptiness.
Difficulty bonding with the baby or feeling disconnected.
Fatigue, irritability, or a lack of motivation.
Feelings of guilt, shame, or inadequacy as a parent.
With the right support, post-natal depression therapy can help parents navigate these emotions and regain confidence in themselves and their parenting journey.
WHAT DOES POST-NATAL DEPRESSION FEEL LIKE?
Post-natal depression can feel like struggling to connect with your baby while battling exhaustion, sadness, and guilt. Many parents describe feeling overwhelmed, inadequate, or emotionally detached from their child.
The experience of post-natal depression may include:
A sense of failure or guilt about not being a “good enough” parent.
Struggling to feel joy or connection with the baby.
Feeling exhausted but unable to rest properly.
Experiencing anxiety or intrusive thoughts about parenting.
Post-natal depression can be distressing, but seeking support can help parents feel more in control and connected to their baby.
