Male Postpartum Depression

This is a tough post to write, so I will be brief. Everyone knows about mothers and postpartum depression, but fewer people realize that men can also experience a form of PD. The sources that I have reviewed indicate that as many as 1 in 4 men experience some form of PD and 1 in 10 may suffer from a moderate to severe form of this condition. Having researched some of the symptoms, I think that I might qualify.

I don't want to get to much into something so personal in such a public forum, but for more information on male PD, I recommend that you check out the websites and articles here, here, and here. Most importantly, if you think that you have male PD, say something to someone.
