PPD FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Welcome, and thank you for being a member of the Online PPMD Support Group forums.

This website is a place for women who are experiencing mood disorders after giving birth or adopting a baby (or have had past experience with these issues), as well as their families and friends and health professionals with an interest in reproductive mental health. Women who had original diagnoses of a postpartum mood disorder but were later diagnosed differently are also welcome.
This is a quick note to request that all active members try to use the forums appropriately by doing the following:

Post in the specific forum set aside for your topic. If you are posting about something not related to Postpartum Mood Disorders, for example, please use our forum dedicated to general topics not related to PPMDs.

Refrain from using the forums to solicit money or goods from other members. It's also inadvisable to offer money or goods to other members.

Remember that the group moderators and members are NOT a substitute for medical care. Be sure to talk concerns over with your health care provider.

Express permission must be obtained from the administrator(s) of the forums before soliciting interviews from or requesting participation in any polls, surveys, or studies from any of our members.
