Having a baby is a joyous time for most. However, there are occasions where this is not the case. The mother may suffer from the normal baby blues which usually passes. However, sometimes after having a baby, the mother could be thrown into a mental health crisis.  My friend Stephanie found herself in such a situation after the birth of her last child. She suffered from an extremely rare mental illness emergency known as postpartum psychosis. This experience did not break her though, as she survived and found a deeper meaning of life in the process. She shares her experience and knowledge about this nightmare scenario in the hopes of helping anyone out there seeking answers.
