Ep 94 You Don't Have to Be Afraid of Postpartum OCD

  • 4 days ago

Oh, lady. :) This episode has been in my heart and mind for such a long time. And it's not a quick listen. But here is the heartbreak and hope of my experience with postpartum OCD. If you struggle with your mental health during postpartum, know another mom who does, or are afraid of being hit by a PMAD (perinatal mood or anxiety disorder), this episode is for you. And if you're not affected but your partner is or might be, it's for you, too. As Sarah Clarkson writes in her heartwrenching, compelling, breathtakingly hopeful OCD memoir, 'This Beautiful Truth: How God's Goodness Breaks into Our Darkness,' "Good is always coming towards us." In this episode, I share the good that's come towards me amidst a struggle I once believed would swallow me whole.


Gentle reminder that nothing in this episode should be construed as medical advice or education. Always consult a trusted healthcare professional with questions.
