Overcoming Postpartum Depression and Anxiety

Not helpful if you already have had depression/anxiety or are receiving adequate treatment. Good intro to concepts of postpartum mood disorders, but nothing ground-breaking.

I am so glad I bought this book. It has helped me through a lot during an emotional time. Thanks!

This is a simple, practical and powerful book both for the woman and her partner. It is well written by a compassionate and thoughtful clinician who has treated many individuals and couples struggling with postpartum depression. I found it very helpful.

Having been a patient of Ms. Sebastian's several years ago, I can honestly say that everything she talks about in this book is based on what real women (like me) have been through. I especially liked the coverage of the anxiety that can frequently go along with the depression, of which many people are unaware. This book is easy to read and understand, which can be helpful when you are suffering from depression/anxiety and may be having trouble with memory or concentration. Other women's "stories" in the book help you to realize that you are not alone and that there is successful treatment. I am proof!

Valuable for my doula work.
