*trigger warning* -themes of depression, anxiety and suicide
This week is international PANDA week, so on the show today we will be talking all things Perinatal anxiety and and depression. From the definitions, to symptoms, the journey to diagnosis and how and where you can seek help.
I will also be sharing my personal journey with perinatal anxiety and depression because I think its important that we speak up about mental health, especially as mothers.
