Postpartum Depression
Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Giving birth and raising a child is one of the most significant adjustments any parent must make that requires us to accommodate ourselves to the presence of an infant/young child who is dependent on us. This can (and almost certainly does at times) feel desperate to the point that we don't know what to do. It is vital that we allow ourselves some degree of self-compassion to know and accept these overwhelming circumstance in order to reach out to others for support and guidance to help us through.

Not all depressive symptoms are the same.
It is important that your provider asks the right questions. oo often, the label “Depression” is tossed around in popular culture as a way to describe a feeling or a mood, i.e. “I’m depressed thinking about how much work I have to do this weekend” or, “After looking at my bank balance this morning, I’m completely depressed.” While these situations CAN trigger sadness, hopelessness, and/or other unpleasant emotions, they are NOT a Depressive Disorder.
We want to help rule out chemical, physical, environmental, and other factors to help you really get to the bottom of things.
