Beyond Blue

Stories of Heartbreak, Healing, and Hope in Postpartum Depression

Herausgeber: Nwobosi, Oga; Myers, Christina

Beschreibung

A significant percentage of mothers experience depression, anxiety or other psychological impacts that go well beyond the " baby blues." For many, their post-partum depression goes undiagnosed, often due to embarrassment, lack of access to resources and the stigma associated with trying to get help. Editors of Beyond Blue, Oga Nwobosi and Christina Myers met in a postpartum support group almost two decades ago. There, they found grief, joy, wisdom, and the lifelong connections that keep us afloat during the most difficult times.
