Postpartum psychosis- maternal mental health and support

Breaking the taboo

This week our host Theo is joined by Dr Jessica Heron, the Chief Executive of Action on Postpartum Psychosis, and an affected mother to provide some practical advice to help affected families.

Topics that we discuss on the show include: what postpartum psychosis is; treatment; mother and baby units; the importance of peer support; wider impact on the family; baby bonding; resources and help for affected families; and raising awareness of the issue.

Don't suffer in silence! Listen in and let's break the final taboo in women's health #breakingthetaboo.
