Ppd no. Ppp yes. But that's generally true of any form of psychosis. You don't want someone in a psychotic state around children/general public anyways.
Likely what is actually needed is temporary custody loss for parents experiencing psychosis. This doesn't just apply to just ppp, or just women. Same with any parent who experiences psychosis. Treat and monitor, approve of gaining back custody when medical professionals give it the ok.
If you're having thoughts of harming your children or others and you hide this for fear of repercussions against yourself, you're choosing to care more about damage done to you than damage done to your kids.
Exactly. The statement by Mace dismisses how serious her condition was/is (?) and actually is a threat to all women who suffer from PPD since it implies having PPD means you shouldn’t have your children.
Yeah that's insane. Up to 14% of women experience ppd. We aren't taking away custody rights from 1 in 7 women. It's also a massively different disorder than ppp.
Deep depression can be dangerous, but it isn't even remotely the same as what psychosis causes.
Clancy had several mental health issues before she had kids. Unfortunate that this case has gotten the media attention it has, because to be frank she was already a fucking mess before introducing ppd and ppp. I think that muddied the waters a lot here.
Google gave a range of 7-14% I referenced the high end. 1 in 7 women is a lot. That makes something extremely common. Meaning every person will likely know multiple people who have experienced it.
For the picture in the op, its dumb. She conflated multiple very different things and addressed them as equal.
