No One Told Us Episode 3: Anxiety is not "Normal" with Kate Borsato
Episode 3: Anxiety is not "Normal" with Kate Borsato
You've heard of Postpartum Depression but what about other perinatal mood disorders? Is it "normal" for moms to be anxious forever now that they've had a baby? What about intrusive thoughts? How long do these feelings last and what can we do about them?
Join Rachael and Therapist Kate Borsato to talk about perinatal mood disorders and finding moments of joy in early motherhood. In this episode we discuss what's normal worrying/ anxiety vs. what's NOT normal and how to know when you should seek help. Kate explains what intrusive thoughts are, how to manage stress and find small "glimmers". We also share about self care, self compassion and finding yourself again!
