Challenges of Medicating Postpartum Depression

Today, we’re joined again by Dr. Roger McFillin, clinical psychologist and cohost of the “Radically Genuine” podcast, to talk about the dangers of modern psychiatry. Dr. McFillin details how depression is a part of the human condition and the truth about our "traumas." We hear the phrase "generational trauma," but what does that really mean, and why does the current generation feel more victimized than past generations? Can therapy really make you worse? Dr. McFillin reveals that there are no approved SSRI drugs for postpartum depression. What does this mean for women who are going through mental pain after childbirth? Dr. McFillin explains ways you can find the right doctor for you.
