Answer:

It is important to know that postpartum depression (PPD) is treatable and that it will go away. The type of treatment will depend on how severe the PPD is. PPD can be treated with medication (antidepressants) and psychotherapy. Women with PPD are often advised to attend a support group to talk with other women who are going through the same thing. If a woman is breastfeeding, she needs to talk with her health care provider about taking antidepressants. Some of these drugs affect breast milk and should not be used.
What can I do to take better care of myself if I get postpartum depression?
The good news is that if you have PPD, there are things you can do to take care of yourself.
Get good, old-fashioned rest. Always try to nap when the baby naps.
Stop putting pressure on yourself to do everything. Do as much as you can and leave the rest! Ask for help with household chores and nighttime feedings.
Talk to your husband, partner, family, and friends about how you are feeling.
Do not spend a lot of time alone. Get dressed and leave the house - run an errand or take a short walk.
Spend time alone with your husband or partner.
Talk to your health care provider about medical treatment. Do not be shy about telling them your concerns. Not all health care providers know how to tell if you have PPD. Ask for a referral to a mental health professional who specializes in treating depression.
Talk with other mothers, so you can learn from their experiences.
Join a support group for women with PPD. Call a local hotline or look in your telephone book for information and services.
