    DEALING WITH POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION

    By Rich Sabreen

    Becoming a new mother is supposed to be a wonderful time of joy and fulfillment. But for many women, it can be a time of fear, shame and terrible despair. It's called postpartum depression, and it's more than just the 'baby blues." It's a devastating condition that, left untreated, can have lasting effects on the whole family. Half a million women will suffer from postpartum depression in the United States this year alone - but surprisingly, most of them won't even try to get help. Join host Dr. Winnie King and meet a woman whose world was turned upside down by postpartum depression after the birth of her son. You'll hear how she struggled with this debilitating condition and how, with treatment, she recovered and got her life back. You'll also hear - from one of the country's leading experts in Reproductive Psychiatry -- about the different types of postpartum illness, and the treatments that can help you overcome them.
