Episode #23 - Postpartum Anxiety & Depression by Emily Murray

On this episode of Survive & Thrive 8791, I welcome Emily Murray into the Buck & Honey's remote studios. According to an internet search, 1 in 5 women experience postpartum anxiety and 1 in 8 women experience postpartum depression. Emily Murray was experiencing both. After a normal pregnancy with her first child, Emily gave birth to a bouncing baby girl. Just six weeks into motherhood, Emily communicated with her primary care physician that she might be experiencing some postpartum anxiety and depression. Emily Murray's postpartum symptoms accelerated with her daughter's first bout with illness culminating with another call to her doctor. She started her road to recovery with help from her doctor and counseling.  As a part owner of an outpatient therapy clinic, Murray did what she has told her patients. She asked for help. Since then, she has survived and thrived. If you are an expectant mother or planning to have children of your own someday, you need to listen to this episode of Survive & Thrive 8791. CAN'T WAIT!!!
