Therapy and the Postpartum Woman
Postpartum depression is not a moral failure, an ethical dilemma, or a symp-
tom of weakness. It is a medical condition that often begins long before the
baby is delivered. It is a neuropsychiatric illness that affects every cell in a
woman’s brain and body, some more obviously than others. But women who
develop it rarely see it as a true medical illness no less real or serious than
postpartum thyroid disease. Unfortunately, the same lack of insight plagues
partners and clinicians in all too many instances.
