Perinatal Mood Disorders

Perinatal Mood Disorders

Perinatal Mental Disorders

10-15% of pregnant and postpartum women experience depression disorders.

13% experience anxiety disorders.

Others may fall into a cycle of substance abuse and eating disorders.

Unfortunately, due to lack of awareness, most victims never talk about what they are going through, or – worse – their complaints are ignored. These women suffer in silence, and their illnesses are left untreated.

We are here to change that.

At Parenting Pod you can read about the risk factors and symptoms of postpartum depression, anxiety, psychosis, and more.

You can read about real-life experiences of women who suffered through it.

And you’ll know that you are not alone.

We have a psychologist, a medical doctor, and a neurologist on staff, all to ensure that you get the facts you need so you can get help and get treated.
