Have you ever felt like you were floating outside your body... or like the world around you wasn’t real? Those strange, scary sensations are known as depersonalization and derealization, and they’re more common in postpartum anxiety and OCD than you might think.

In today’s episode, I’m walking you through what these symptoms are, why they happen, and what to do when they hit you hard. The answer probably isn’t what you’d expect, but it is what actually works.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

• What depersonalization and derealization feel like in real life

• How these sensations connect to postpartum anxiety and OCD

• Why trying to "snap out of it" only fuels the fear

• What to do instead when you feel detached from yourself or your surroundings

• Why this experience doesn’t mean you’re broken and why there’s real hope for healing

If you’ve been silently struggling with feeling “off,” disconnected, or unsure if you’re losing your grip, this episode is for you. You’re not alone. And there’s a path forward.

If you’ve ever had a scary thought pop into your mind after, you’re not alone ... and it doesn’t mean you’re losing your mind. In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into postpartum psychosis fears and the very real struggle of intrusive thoughts after birth.

I’m breaking down the difference between postpartum psychosis (which is rare and involves hallucinations and delusions) and the unwanted, anxiety-driven thoughts that so many moms experience in silence. We’ll also talk about harm OCD, POCD, and the compulsions that keep you stuck in the cycle of fear.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

• What postpartum psychosis symptoms actually are — and why intrusive thoughts are not the same thing

• Why experiencing intrusive thoughts doesn’t mean you’ll act on them

• The difference between harm OCD, POCD, and true psychosis

• How compulsions reinforce fear (and how to start breaking free)

• How to take small action steps toward healing from postpartum anxiety and OCD

• Why your thoughts don’t define you and why there’s so much hope

If you're stuck in fear after having a baby and wondering if you’re "crazy," this conversation is for you. There’s hope. You’re not alone. And there’s a way forward.
