Hi there I've seen a few posts on here that breastfeeding wasn't recommended while taking olanzapine. My doctors said it was fine. Any advice?

Book about PPP
Hello, all! I have passed the one year mark of getting PPP and havevgreat news. I just published my first book, and it is a memoir of my experience with PPP and BP. It was a great way to process what I went through and found it therapeutic in a way. It was challenging bringing up memories I have repressed

Positives to come out of PP
I suffered with PP in August 2013 and it was the scariest thing I've ever experienced. However, 13 months later I applied for and was offered the job of Peer Support Worker for a Recovery College in the NHS, two days a week. I'd never worked in Mental Health before but having experienced PP I became

Thyroiditis screening
Hi all, I don't have time to write a detailed post now, but my wife has been suffering with
psychosis
since the birth of our daughter September 2013. We declined admission to the local MBU (it's complicated I'll explain later), although her symptoms were severe enough to warrant it.

self-pity
How do you deal with self pity and frustration during the recovery process. I had my PP episode/hospitalization in April of this year. I have had 2 car accidents and my son just broke his leg because my husband fell with him on the stairs. I feel like bad things keep happening. I know it could always

Stuck!!!
So I have a diagnosis of bipolar with
psychosis
, and I have recently had my baby (4th October) although I'm now starting to notice that I think I'm heading downhill, I keep getting these delusions in my head and sometimes the voices are so loud and persistent I just don't know what to do with myself!

How anxiety can create hallucination.
Other times this is caused by additional anxiety symptoms that resemble those of true
psychosis
. One such symptom is hallucinations.

So grateful to have found this site...
I suffered PP after the birth of my 1st daughter in 1988 I never even realised this is what it was until recently when I began reading about others who have experienced this condition on this site. There never was any doubt that there was something wrong with me at the time but I never remember anyone

Talking to your kids about mental health
I told my eldest some of the silly/wacky things I did after she was born to take some of the 'unknown' out of
psychosis
and to help her understand that it was quite different to being depressed.

Bipolar, Want to Get Pregnant Again
I can't find a lot of resources for bipolar women who have had postpartum
psychosis
online. Are there any other moms who can tell me if they have had successful pregnancies after post partum
psychosis
? And what did you do with the medication?
