The Postnatal Depletion Cure by Dr. Oscar Serrallach

Potential Postnatal Depletion Symptoms:

• Having a medical condition start during or after pregnancy
• Feeling like digestive issues have worsened since giving birth
• Feeling severe fatigue, or feeling exhausted on waking (which I know is hard to differentiate when you’re up around the clock with a newborn, but we’re talking extreme fatigue) 
• Falling asleep unintentionally when putting kids to bed
• Sensitivity to bright light or repetitive sounds, feeling easily started
• Experiencing anxiety above your norm
• Being a “light sleeper” and being overly aware when you are asleep
• Having a poor sex drive
• Experiencing severe brain fog
• Struggling to keep up with basic self-care
• Experiencing a significant loss of self-esteem
• Having a sense of isolation
• Feeling like there is no time for you
• Feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope
• Feeling guilt or shame or failure around your role as a mom
