What this blog is all about


My plans for our Blog.......
  • I would like to concentrate on Postnatal Depression, but also include useful tools for any mother.
  • I will share mine and others journeys with Postnatal Depression. The worst parts, the recovery and finally looking back.
  • I will share links, resources, self help options that I have tried (I'm not a professional, all advice will be purely based on mine & others personal experiences).
  • I want to share tips on my experience of being a busy working Mother and ways I try to make life a little less chaotic and crazy. Meal ideas when your busy, housework tips, you get the drift :-)
  • I will share my rants (I will try to keep this at a minimum, I promise)
  • And as I stated in my first post I plan to share with you each week my 'Keep Busy' project!
You see whilst I have tried many self help options in my recovery, I found the best way for me to get through my battle was to keep busy. I don't recommend this to everyone. Some may say I'm avoiding dealing with the depression, but for those who know me and my history they will know that this is just my way of dealing with this in my own way. I take out my feelings in craft, sewing and hanging out with my little man 'The worm'.
I will just mention that I'm currently still having treatment for PND, so don't be concerned that I'm avoiding anything :-)

 My aim is to remove the stigmas attached to Postnatal Depression.
We should not have to be silent anymore
