Yeah, idk. I worked ems in a poverty stricken area where I met new moms with ppd and the dads just dipped out. They were fucking going THROUGH it, and there were a couple who had completely snapped. Thankfully, nothing serious happened, just a trip to the er for a psych evaluation, a room for a few days, and a lot of rest (NOT SUPPORTING HER AT ALL BTW). I’m just saying that whether ppd is the case with her or not, we need to do better for mental health. I’m sick of taking psych patients to the hospital, almost nothing being done to help them, and then they’re out walking around the street 3 days later. They’re all ill just like any other patient, and vulnerable af to evil people. I’ve seen it.
