I did not read the book as I bought it for my daughter. But evaluating my order. The book came in record time. Wayyyy before the estimated arrival time I was given. It was on the doorstep in just a couple days from my order date. That is definatly a PLUS.
Rating: 4 / 5
This book was, and still is, a real lifesaver for me. I could find my symptoms/thoughts/feelings in this book, which reassured me that I wasn’t crazy, but in need of getting healthy.
The book is well-organized and written in a pleasant, reassuring tone. It is easy to read and easy to use. I still refer to it and do its exercises whenever I have a setback (they are a part of recovery).
Chapters on therapy, medication, and how husbands can cope complete this excellent guide.
A speedy recovery to those of you who suffer. You can do it and YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

This is by far the best book on PPD. I have recommended it to moms, dads, grandmas, OB’s, nurses, behavior health specialists, psychiatrists, psychologists, med students, you name it. This is the resource to have on PPD.

This book has been more helpful than I expected. =) It does not only provide helpful information, but incorporates exercises which can really help one process and think through feelings, experiences, and ideas. I feel like I’m getting myself back little by little as I work through it.
