38. Honesty Hour: Postpartum Psychosis and Mental Health with Ayana Lage
Manage episode 364401204 series 3369219
“Ever heard of Lindsay Clancy? Or Andrea Yates? Both mothers were charged with murdering their children after appearing to suffer from a mental health condition that’s shrouded in stigma. After nearly three years, I’ve decided it's time to talk about my experience—in the hopes that we don’t have to add another name to that list.” - Ayana Lage.
In this episode, you'll join me and Ayana Lage, an incredible lifestyle blogger and funny tweet aficionado. We delve into the profound world of postpartum mental illness (preparing for it, signs and symptoms, possible causes and getting help), shine a light on the unspoken struggles that birth-givers face, reflect on how long it takes to start feeling "back to normal" and more.
