Podcasts about maternal depression

Did you know, 50-75% of new moms who have postpartum depression are never diagnosed? Welcoming a new baby is a life-changing experience that comes with significant hormonal, physical and emotional changes. Stress, anxiety, sadness and fear are all normal emotions during the postpartum period. You're likely familiar with words like postpartum depression, perinatal depression, maternal depression, and baby blues. But what do they all mean?   Today we have a profound and powerful conversation with Dr. Rachel Herbst, pediatric psychologist and therapist Kara Messmore about these types of depression and their impact on families and children. We learn how to identify symptoms of PPD and discuss psychosocial stressors that pre-dispose parents to depression. Kara and Rachel also provide tips on how families and friends can support new parents and ways for caregivers to take care of themselves, which is the most important thing a new parent can do for their own health and for their baby.   Resources:   For more information on Moving Beyond Depression at Cincinnati Children's, please watch this video to learn more: Moving Beyond Depression | Cincinnati Children's  For additional resources in the Greater Cincinnati Area, visit:  Cradle Cincinnati: Cradle Cincinnati (squarespace.com)  Queen's Village: Queens Village (blackwomenforthewin.com)

Anytime Kate and Deb share a client's story, they are actually bringing a number of different clients and situations they've seen in their work rather than talking about one particular client. They are never going to reveal names in the interest of protecting a person's anonymity. And on a regular basis, the two sit down with their girls to make sure what they share on this podcast is okay with them.

In this podcast, we are joined by Dr. Becca Lacey to discuss her JCPP paper ‘Testing lifecourse theories characterising associations between maternal depression and offspring depression in emerging adulthood: the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children'. Becca is the first author of the paper.

As a young mom, Amy Koppelman struggled with severe postpartum depression, haunted by dark thoughts of what she might do to herself or her child. One unusual part of her recovery was writing a novel about a struggling mom who lived out Amy's worst fears.   Now, 20 years later, that critically-acclaimed novel, A Mouthful of Air, has been re-published and Amy also is screenwriter and director of a new feature-length film by the same name, starring Academy Award-winning actress Amanda Seyfried. Both the book and the Sony film are just part of Amy's passionate effort to reduce the stigma of mental illness and increase understanding of maternal depression and how friends and family can support mothers in their recovery. Don't miss this unique and important conversation about an issue so many individuals and families confront!   HAVE YOU OR SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU EXPERIENCED MATERNAL DEPRESSION? How did friends and family respond? And, to what extent were those responses helpful? In what ways do you think social media, with so many staged images of “perfectly happy moms,” may make it even harder for women to admit feelings of anxiety and depression?   WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MATERNAL DEPRESSION? ❉ MATERNAL DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY: ESSENTIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INCIDENCE, IMPACT AND TREATMENT. It's important for all of us to understand the signs of maternal depression and anxiety, safe and effective treatment options and how family and friends can help. Psychiatrist Michelle Wiersgalla and psychologist Gabrielle Mauren join Marti & Erin for an informative and candid discussion everyone should hear.

Alex and Carlos Pena Vega Poet Kate Baer Seth Godin "Somebody Feed Phil" Phil Rosenthal  The Way of Integrity with Martha Beck Heart Mind Coherence Meditation  About "A Mouthful of Air" A Mouthful of Air is a compassionate and wrenching portrait of Julie Davis, a young wife and mother torn between the love she feels for her family and the voice in her head that insists they'd be better off without her. When it was originally published almost twenty years ago, A Mouthful of Air was compared to seminal feminist works such as Charlotte Perkins Gilman's “A Yellow Wallpaper” and Sylvia Plath's "The Bell Jar". It is a powerful, tragic Statement on motherhood, family, and survival. Within the narrative of A Mouthful of Air is an argument about the nature of depression—its causes, cures, and the price it exacts from its victims. With spare, elegant prose, this brutally honest portrayal of family and self illuminates the power and complexity of the human psyche. Amy Koppelman is a graduate of Columbia's MFA program. Her writing has appeared in The New York Observer and Lilith. She lives in New York City with her husband and two children, and is the author of the novels, "A Mouthful of Air" and "Hesitation Wounds".

I came into information about this some weeks ago and thought it would be an interesting topic to broach. My personal experience didn't have these words to describe but I do understand it as I experienced it about 3 years after giving birth. Depression of any kind can happen due to a multitude of environmental, physiological, psychological and relational factors. Have you or anyone you know experienced this? Please share a testimony or observation. #parentalmentalhealth #maternalmentalhealth #communitycare #selfcare #empowerher #advocacy #education --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mommymatters/support

Maternal depression is an adverse childhood experience and can have a lasting impact on a child’s health and well-being if left untreated. When parents are depressed it can negatively impact a child’s development, impede their ability to learn, and have effects that can last into adulthood. In this episode, we discuss postpartum checkups as part of well-child visits, and maternal depression screenings as they’re are considered best practice for pediatricians.

Maternal depression and anxiety are very common. Have you or someone you know experienced depression or serious anxiety since becoming a mom? Given the prevalence of these mental health problems among mothers, your answer almost certainly is yes. Yet too often these disorders go undiagnosed and untreated -- in part because of stigma. Stigma is when people are unfairly viewed in negative ways because of their circumstances or a quality. It's essential that we work together as a community to challenge the stigma associated with mental illness. It’s important for all of us to understand the signs of maternal depression and anxiety, safe and effective treatment options and how family and friends can help. Psychiatrist Michelle Wiersgalla and psychologist Gabrielle Mauren from Park Nicollet Health Services join Marti & Erin for an informative and candid discussion everyone should hear.   WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT MATERNAL DEPRESSION & ANXIETY?
