New Postnatal mental illness support group (London)

[Katgrant30]

Hi ladies, just want to tell you about our new support group that is starting in a few weeks time, in central London:
local.mumsnet.com/lambeth/other-local-events/169819-new-pnd-support-group

It's run by the amazing PANDAS charity, which has groups across the UK.

Hope to see some London ladies there!

You can read about my own story of recovery from postpartum psychosis here:

bump!

This is on on Tuesday... Very near Waterloo, free and open to all (like a mums and baby/toddler group but with a difference!)

Hi I don't live in London but see that there are groups around the country. Are they specifically for ante and postnatal depression? I have ocd and have been thinking it would be nice to attend some sort of group to meet other mums with mh issues. I have a newborn and a pre-schooler. Just not clear from the PANDAS website whether they cater for other conditions too?
Thanks

I'd love to know if there any in the SE.

Hi ladies - yes we cater for any and all mental health conditions - eg anxiety and OCD. Me myself had psychosis. There are a number of groups in the SE, including 3 now in London... Do email me [email protected] if you'd like to learn more. Thanks!! X

Thanks I've emailed the local group leader.

Awesome - really hope you find it useful or at the very least comforting to know you are not alone. Best of luck! X

Hello - just wanted to let you know we are meeting again this Wednesday, 16 April. At the Roebuck pub in Oval (Ashmole Street). We will be there from around 10-11.30am. It's a very baby and child friendly pub, with tea and toast and loads of toys. :)
Hope to see you there!
