Get Help
How do I know when I should seek help?
Mood changes may:
Feel like…
- Hopelessness, anxiety, or sadness
- Being quick to anger and irritability
- Headaches or stomachaches
Look like…
- Sleep and appetite changes
- Lack of concentration
- Disinterest in activities, families, and friends
Sound like…
- Worry about something bad happening
- “My family would be better off without me”
If you notice your or your partner’s mood changes lasting longer than two weeks or impacting their ability to care for themselves or the baby, contact your healthcare provider.
