That’s a really interesting article, thanks for sharing. I actually had no idea that dads could struggle with postpartum depression too. It’s great to see more awareness being brought to this topic. Personally, I didn’t experience paternal postpartum depression, but I can imagine how tough it would be for those who do. It’s important for dads to know that it’s okay to seek support and treatment if they’re struggling. I think the more we talk about this issue, the more we can break down the stigma and provide better support for new dads. If anyone has any experiences they’d like to share or tips for supporting a partner through paternal postpartum depression, I’d love to hear them.
Wow, thank you for sharing this article! I’m 31 and just became a dad for the first time a few months ago.

I haven’t personally experienced it, but it’s great to have more awareness and resources available. I think it’s so important for dads to know that it’s okay to seek help if they’re struggling. I’m going to share this with some of my dad friends because I think it’s a topic that doesn’t get talked about enough. Thanks again for bringing this to our attention!
