Struggling Dad's

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
My heart goes out to all of you dealing with ppd. I am posting to ask about the possibility of post partum depression in fathers. My husband has really been depressed for weeks. I would not be posting here if I wasn't seriously concerned. What I really want to ask is " what can I do to help?" or "What should I not do?"

ABC just did a story on this two days ago

There is also this website I just found it but it might be a resource.

I believe depression is contagious. I can often feel my spirits "dragged down" as it were by others around me that are depressed.

I'm not qualified to offer advice on what you should or shouldn't do so I won't. I don't know how old your baby is, or if you believe you might have PPD yourself, I think those are things to bring into consideration.
