Whilst
every attempt has been made on this website to address many of the facts
surrounding Ante-Natal Depression, every one is different and every situation
unique. An outline of the details
included in this website is available in my leaflet.
If you
would like to receive paper copies of the leaflet or any of the documents on
this website please email me or write to:
You can
join the Depression in Pregnancy forum, where you can chat with other people who
are affected by depression in pregnancy, in a friendly, supportive environment.
Alternatively,
if you can’t see the answer to your question in the Frequently Asked
Questions section or have any relevant comments, please feel free to
email me.
Confidential email support is available although please be aware this is
not
the same as online counselling and you will always be encouraged to speak with
your GP and midwife. You may also be
asked for your GP’s contact details.
Replies to emails will usually be sent within 24 hours. Please ask for
more details.
