No Mother and Baby Unit in Wales
Hello all, I've read a few things on this forum and it is fantastic. I have only been discharged 2 weeks ago from a Mother and Baby unit London. I am from South Wales. Its saddening to find out that the mother and baby unit was shut down several years ago. I have written a blog as a way of personally

Reducing Venlafaxine after taking for 5 years. Anyone suffered withdrawal hell?
Background of my PP and medication: I had Postpartum
Psychosis
in February 2010 and after being prescribed Olanzapine the symptoms of
psychosis
soon subsided. However, in July 2010 I fell into an incredibly deep depression and have been on a number of anti-depressants ever since.

Is PP more common when you give birth to a son??
Most of the stories I have read about women that have had PP have given birth to a son. I'm wondering if having a son could contribute to PP? Please comment 'boy' or 'girl' below. Cheers

Psychotic symptoms or OCD?
It was a little scary to hear the term
psychosis
but as the thoughts had now gone and I recognised hormones can make you feel a bit crazy and every day I just felt relief that I could see my son as everyone else did.

PP in the menopause ?
Hi Everyone, I am 60. I had the worst case of PP when I had my son 33 years ago. It was life threatening to the point were I was sectioned. After many attempts with meds, ECT - Electroconvulsive therapy did the trick. (Despite controversy). Previously I had no mental issues and they went after a

New to the forum
After the birth of my third child in 2012 I experienced what I believe to have been postnatal
psychosis
. I was convinced that I was going to die, would not interact with my children because they were going to loose me anyway and considering suicide as at least then I'm in control of it.
