"Many people have heard of Post-Natal Depression. What they don't all know is that in psychiatric circles there are moves to relabel it Peri-Natal Distress: 'peri' as the condition can occur at any time both during and after pregnancy; and 'distress' because it can take the form of both traditional depression or heightened anxiety. PND is a recognised medical condition caused by hormonal fluctuations as well as psychosocial stressors associated with the huge change of life that comes with having a baby. Approximately 1 in 3 women (and their families) in South Africa suffer from PND. Yet few books are dedicated to the subject in this country. This groundbreaking new autobiography takes readers on a brave, no-holds-barred journey into the mind of a woman with PND, and out the other side." -- foreword.
