LDS, Negotiating Post-Partum Depression
I wanted to link to this utterly wonderful article written by a good friend of ours, which includes a story of a woman with Post-Partum depression. Please go read... I have not often read anything this honest, describing the feelings and difficulties of PPD, and braving the recovery process. I am amazed at this woman's guts and resilience, and hope that if I ever find myself enduring serious depression, I am strong enough to follow in her footsteps.

Thanks for the link, Nosurfgirl. The first time I read her story, I just kind of sat there and thought... "whoa." It is truly a heart-wrenching and, in its own way, incredibly uplifting story.
thanks NSG!! how greatful i am that i had a very wise aunt who pretty much watched me take an anti-depressent everyday so that i wouldn't just flush it down the sink because i thought i was too strong for that. so anyways thanks
remember that my very own grandma put her 4th child lillian into the oven caused by post mortem depression..
Thanks for sharing. I am really glad that you did. That story is so well written. I think that stories like that should be shared more often, because so many people are really clueless as to what is involved with depression and such.
