Asking for help!!!

There are a lot of studies that focus on how people who are socially isolated and don't have the support of family or friends are at a higher risk for postnatal depression. Yet it isn't really seen as the thing to do in our culture! We are told we should be able to do it alone and women can see it as a form of weakness if they need to ask for help. 

I see it as the opposite! To ask for help in this culture is brave and is truly the best thing you can do to love yourself and your baby!

So I hope this episode encourages you to ask for help next time you need it!
