8: Maternal Mental Health Series: Personal Journey with Postpartum Depression with Macy Bassler

  • Summary

  • This week's episode is Macy's personal account of working through postpartum depression. She shares what life was like at the time with three kids: having another child with special needs, her husband's job demands, being distanced from lots of their support system, and the insanity that life brought in this season. Macy also goes into the symptoms that clued her in to something being off, and how a shift in symptoms made it more difficult to pinpoint the reality that there was even an issue. She talks of how when this shift is gradual, our baseline for normal functioning and healthy emotions can change without us even knowing it. For this reason, she discusses the importance of checking in with yourself as well as opening these kinds of discussions with others whom we trust in order to hold one another accountable and foster true healing in a community context.
