Before having children, I enjoyed life and my job. When my first child was born, I felt low and longed to be at work instead of being at home with my daughter. I was on anti-depressants for three months but didn't know who I was anymore. I eventually found holistic approaches and creative projects to help me get through. When my second child was born, I felt shame and embarrassment because my medical records indicated they had postpartum depression before. I had a spiritual encounter that helped me get through it and I asked the universe for 2019 to be the last Christmas I spent away from my daughters. In March 2020, my job laid them off, which was what they had asked for. Now I want to help parents bond with their kids and bring light to men having postpartum depression.
