> Postpartum Depression holistic patient view versus commercial pharmaceutical treatment.The shear emotional, physical and life changes involved in having a baby is in many ways similar to PTSD. In just a few weeks your body has been physically exhausted, your mentally and emotionally drained and now you are physical/spiritually/ and emotionally bond to a new human life who is 100 percent dependent on you for its survival and well being.Now imagine this leads to a period of depression in the patient. Is this really a pharmaceutical issue or a societal structure and support issue. Perhaps even more than just that.It is depressing to me to see things like this get pushed out … just take this pill and it will help move you up a few points on our 17 point scale and cope.Instead of wow, let’s really look at what’s happening with the birthing process on how we prepare mothers and support them emotionally, physically and maybe even spiritually.Nope just take this drug and in 6 weeks you will be back to work and we can get that new kid in daycare :/#rantover
