If Only They'd Told Me Podcast

How do you tell the difference between 'the baby blues' and true post natal depression? Everyone seems to know someone who's had it. It's a slightly different tone on If Only They'd Told Me this week, as Jacquie shares a moving, real story of a family who has been through Post Natal Depression.  Find out what happened and how you can recognise the signs in yourself and in those you care about.  Some signs of post natal depression include: Uncontrollable crying Loss of interest in things you previously interested in Negative thoughts Self blame Severe mood swings Feeling numb Feeling isolated Tiredness, including desperately wanting to sleep, but not being able to Thoughts of self harm or harming baby ANY of these should be a warning signal. Get professional help or talk to someone if you have even one symptom.  If you have a story (your own or someone you know of) and it would be helpful for others to know, we'd love to hear from you… comments@ifonlytheytoldme.com comments@ifonlytheytoldme.com
