When I was a pregnant and new mother I read all the books I could get my hands on about birthing, breastfeeding, and caring for my baby, but I never read up on postpartum depression (PPD). After having two babies of my own and experiencing perinatal mood and anxiety disorder (PMAD) I so desperately wish I would have had a tool like this book in my postpartum toolkit.
The Postpartum Depression Workbook explains and describes both PMAD and PPD, she includes many useful tools and reframing exercises to work through them as well. The workbook is not positioned as an alternative to therapy, though it could work for many if therapy was not part of their journey. Instead, the book can work in tandem with therapy, medications if needed, and other self-care practices.
If you’re reading this review and thinking that this book doesn’t pertain to you because you’re not planning on having a baby or you are already past the stages of early motherhood, I encourage you to reconsider. Almost all of us know folx who are in the stage of life of giving birth and the tools in this workbook can help you support those friends and family members who are in that stage. This is now going on my list of recommended reading for anyone considering or in the process of trying to conceive or currently pregnant or postpartum.
