Veritees Post Natal Forum - Article in The Sunday

[Veritee]

Hi Everyone

Just to let you know that an article writen by Anna Moore some time ago on Post Natal Depression will be published in the Sunday Observer Magazine this Sunday, 18th January.

Anna contacted many of the people she interviewed via this forum and I hope this will be a positive step in getting the issue in the public domain.

All the best to you all

I found this forum through reading the Sunday magazine. What a brilliant idea. Wish there had been something like it 15 years ago in 1989. I had my youngest of 4 children then and have had diagnosed problems with depression since 1995. Some of that may well have been ongoing post natal depression. I did have counselling eventually in 1998 and I now think I have resolved issues going back to that pregnancy and problems after the birth. I have a lovely family including my youngest daughter nearly 15. But I think we all suffered through my ill health going unrecognised.
Hopefully the magazine article will reach others who need understanding of how they feel now.
