Pregnancy & Postpartum Depression Help in an Emergency

When postpartum depression turns into an emergency it can happen fast and often out of nowhere. You need emergency postpartum depression help when:

• Your symptoms are affecting your relationship with your baby and your family.
• You feel alone and ashamed, and the support of family and friends is not enough.
• You believe that things are getting worse, not better.

If you are in danger
of hurting yourself or
someone else, dial 911.
