Perinatal and Postpartum Mood Disorders
Motherhood is skilled, emotionally demanding, and exhausting work. In most families, the mother is the main source of comfort, care, and counsel: all members benefi t from her devotion, enthusiasm, and resourcefulness, and all—especially the children—suffer from her discouragement. Every effort we make to improve mothers’ well-being and morale is a contribution to family life, and the health of the next generation. Helping mothers is the responsibility of many professionals and professions—clinical and scientifi c psychology, psychiatry, social work, midwifery, academic nursing, general medical practice, obstetrics, pediatrics, pharmacology, pathology, and law. In addition, laity in many countries have organized their own networks of support, which play avital role.
