      Oh, well that would’ve been good to mention in the post description. Not going to click that link just based on the clickbait title on the chance it’s a decent article.

      I know somebody who got postpartum psychosis and spent time in a mental health hold because she was seeing and hearing shit that wasn’t real.

      Lucky thing. Seems to excuse any behavior after a baby is born.

        No, you’re not lucky if you have postpartum depression. What a ridiculous thing to say.
