Hello,

I'm new to the Beyond Blue forums and was wondering where I could go to discuss issues relating to pre/postnatal depression? I did see al list of forums but wasn't too sure which one would apply to me.

Thanks for your help!

Dear KidsMum~

Welcom here to the Forum, it can seem a pretty confusing place to start of with, however you are going to find there a lots of people her who would like to help.

I guess the most logical place to start would be the Depression section.When you make your post there if you include pre/postnatal depression in your title it will be easy to see what you would like to talk about.

It's a subject that does come up often as sadly many people have experienced it. If you Google:

post natal depression beyondblue forum

You will find many threads to read

We'll look forward to your post, if you have any difficulties making it just sing out.

Hi KidsMum, please let me also welcome you to the forums.

I would agree with Croix and google his suggestion, but I am very sorry that you need to discuss issues relating to PND, however there are many people who can join in and talk about this illness.

This does actually include myself, simply because my wife had PND where it rubbed off onto me if that's possible, but that's what happened.

Please come back, there will be others who will want to join in as well.

Kind Regards.

Geoff.

Hello Croix and Geoff,

Thank you both for getting back to me with your suggestions. Yes! There are a lot of discussions about PND. I know it's a common thing for both women and men and am happy to know there are people out there just willing to listen.

Thanks again!
