Just the rush of hormones is totally normal.

But the postpartum psychosis is a very, it's much more rare.

The mothers who go on to, I think it's called infancyde, where they kill their children.

But there's a famous case in Boston.

And then Andrea V. Yates is from Texas, which is where I'm from.

And she did kill her children.

And so it can turn into something very, very severe.

And when I was going through this, I did not ever think that that would be me.

That would never be me.

I'm not really sure because I,

I'm assuming that it is, but that's just me assuming on my experience.

I never went back to my OB and discussed any of these things with her.

I just went to a regular doctor and they just gave me some medications.

But I feel like if postpartum depression is left untreated, I do think it can progress.

I don't think that you give birth and immediately are...

psychotic or anything like that.

I think that just you lack of sleep, the crying, the emotions over time, I think it can lead to pretty severe psychosis.

So starting my story, I feel like the way I grew up had a pretty good influence on

how I led my life as a young adult.

I was very sheltered growing up.
