It’s not a topic that comes up at play groups or over coffee. Instead, new parents suffer quietly, engulfed in shame and secrecy, afraid to dispel the ever-present myths about parenthood – “everything is perfect,” “I love being a parent,” and “this is the happiest time of my life.”
They don’t share the dark thoughts, intense anxiety, scary intrusive thoughts, checking excessively on the baby, feelings of inadequacy, grief over lost independence, thoughts of harm to self or baby, and even delusions and hallucinations.
Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) are real, pervasive, and can be life-threatening.
