Postnatal depression is way too common in today's world, especially in Western society. It ranges from feeling moody and 'not oneself' to, at the other extreme, experiencing a psychotic event.
The underlying causes are:
- Exhaustion through lack of sleep
- Hormones adjusting and uterus shrinking while the body recovers
- Trauma past or from the birth experience
