Today we sat down with our close friend, the beautiful soul, and extremely talented Kristen Giorgi to deep dive into her personal experiences with postpartum OCD & depression. We normalize the fact that most of us experience some mental health challenges despite what our social media might depict. We go over the very real ways in which pregnancy and childbirth are a trauma for the body and why it’s so important to validate and better understand this aspect of the experience for women and for the partners who are accompanying them through it.
We specifically unpacked and educate you guys on a type of OCD called Harm OCD & we take you through a list of several other possible manifestations of OCD that extend far beyond the stereotypical depictions that the media has popularized which have led to many misconceptions.
