6 Signs You Might Be Suffering From Post Partum Depression

Business woman is depressed. She felt stressed and alone in the house.

Post partum depression is a serious and often debilitating mental illness that can affect women shortly after giving birth. It’s thought to be caused by a combination of physical and emotional factors, including stress, fatigue, and hormonal changes. Symptoms can vary from woman to woman, but may include extreme mood swings, decreased interest in life, inability to concentrate or make decisions, and feelings of sadness, loneliness, and guilt. Post partum depression can last for weeks or months, but is usually relieved by the baby’s arrival. While postpartum depression is relatively rare, it’s important to seek help if you’re feeling overwhelmed or sad.
