Depression during and after pregnancy afflicts many people, and health care practitioners say that the pandemic has only worsened this mental health issue. These kinds of depression can include deep sadness, heightened anxiety and incessant exhaustion that makes it hard for sufferers to care for their families, let alone themselves. Today, I will be talking to Tish Weinstock, a former beauty editor of Vogue, who wrote a very brave article about her own experience with prenatal depression. In this episode, Tish talks about how hopeless and alone she felt was pregnant with her first child. And I asked her all about her own battle with depression and what steps she took towards her own recovery. I sincerely hope that by sharing this conversation, it might help reassure any other expectant or new mothers who are struggling.
