*Pre And post Natal Depression Advice and Support*

[PandasFoundation]

Hi,

I suffered postnatal depression after the birth of my son Andreas in February 2010. I felt really alone and like i had to keep all my thoughts and feelings to my self. I had brilliant support from my husband but really struggled. I went back to work after 10 weeks and hated it every time people said shouldnt i be at home with my son, work my exscape.

I set up Pandas Foundation to help individuals suffering from pre and postnatal depression, Pandas Foundation - Pre and Postnatal Depression Advice and Suppost Pandas Foundation

I just want people to know you arent on your own. you dont have to hide and its good to talk about it. I will always listen.

I suffered from postnatal depression after the birth of my daughter in 2010 too and want to congratulate you in raising awareness of this issue. I was lucky too in that I had the support of my famliy and friends but welcome any new avenues of support for those not so fortunate.
