Getting off medication without bad withdrawals
Hi everyone, I had PPP in June 2015, a month in MBU and sent home with olanzapine to take for a year and started on sertraline for depression. Finally free of olanzapine but the withdrawals were awful. The insomnia being the worst. I was given zolpidem to help with sleep but after a month on sleeping

Any youtubers?
Hello everyone, I thought I might just ask if there are any youtubers around who have suffered pp? I remember when I was ill and in a MBU I foolishly looked up the illness on YouTube and all I found were horrific stories of women who hadn't got well. I kind of thought as a way of getting better I would

Recovery Setback
HI all, I found this website online looking for help and answers. My wife had PP in 2013 after the birth of our daughter. She spent 3 weeks in the hospital before coming home. She was not manic after that time but very depressed for several months. Outside of the hospital she only used lithium,

Faith shaken after Pp
I had an episode of pp exactly a year ago when I was 5 mths postpartum, I woke up one morning in complete confusion and depersonalization. I believe I was saved before this happened, but now I'm questioning it. Over thE past year I have doubted and questioned everything I've read in my Bible and so much

Am I irresponsible to consider pregnancy?
I'm not sure where else to get some help, so I thought I'd join this forum and see if anyone has any thoughts on the following: Am I being irresponsible, thinking of trying to get pregnant when I've had
psychosis
and depression before?

Managing the Sleepiness
Hi everyone, I have postpartum
psychosis
after my second daughter, and after spending 6 weeks in the mother baby unit have been at home now for 2 weeks. I'm currently taking Quetiapine, which has made the psychotic symptoms and mania disappear but leaves me really drowsy and forgetful.

A question for the experienced Mums
We are wondering whether this is normal behaviour or whether he could have a tendency towards mania/bipolar when he grows up (I'm not bipolar but at risk of
psychosis
relapse from stress and lack of sleep).

Did your contractions feel cerebral?
I'm womdering whether anyone else who suffered from pp had contractions that they sensed in their head. Throughout pregnancy, I would feel my Braxton hicks practice contractions in my head. It felt like a low level electric shock in my skull. Kind of like a head rush when you are upside down. I can't
