#4 - Four Kids in 3 Years - Anxiety, Depression, and Almost a Divorce (Anonymom series)

Welcome to my Anonymom series.  Real moms talking about their deepest and darkest moments - anonymously.  Anonymom episodes may consist of difficult topics including miscarriage, infertility, separation, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other potentially triggering issues.  Names have been changed to protect the identity of the mom. This episode features Caroline, a mom who had 4 boys in 3 years (including twins).  She reports her husband is gone frequently for work, therefore, she is frequently left alone to manage the household, children, and life in general.  After her first child was born, Caroline says she experienced postpartum depression and anxiety.  She dives deep into her relationship difficulties with her husband and how she's worked hard to overcome feelings of not being supported, not being heard, and trying hard to be perfect. This podcast should not be substituted for legitimate mental health treatment.  If you or a mom you know is struggling with mental health difficulties during pregnancy, postpartum, or beyond, contact Postpartum Support International at 800-944-4773 or visit www.postpartum.net.  If you are worried about your safety or the safety of a loved one, please call for help immediately at 911 or by reaching out to the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255.
