Postpartum Depression


 It's been like a minute since I was last here. It's been a very busy time for me so please pardon me.

Life is a mystery; sometimes the kind of things that you encounter through it makes it incomprehensible but we still try our best to make meaning of whatever we go through

Let's have a chit chat shall we?

Have you heard about postpartum depression?

Is something that mothers go through after childbirth. They become overly overwhelmed

They feel their child is not theirs

They feel the child is cursed

They feel the child has no connection with them

They feel they are not good mothers and so on 

These are few things that they go through

Going through pregnancy is not an easy thing and the after birth is not easy either

Sometimes people feel as a woman, you have to be fine after the delivery but it's sometimes difficult

There are some mothers out there that are finding it very difficult but no one talks about it

The only thing we see on social media is the pre photo of the mother when she's carrying the child and an after picture when the baby is delivered and sometimes a picture of the mother looking all snatched up after weeks of delivery.

No one posts their problems on social media so people think motherhood is that easy

They go through a lot and this is one of them

They going through this, doesn't make them less of a human being

They experience mood swings. Instead of them being happy, they rather become afraid. 

When that happens they need alot of support from their support system to help them go through it

They should be treated with care and love

And they should also understand that what they are going through is a phase and they will soon be okay

Some people think of killing themselves. That is too extreme. When that happens the person needs to talk to a psychiatrist so that something can be done immediately.

This has to be talked about more often so that new mothers out there will get to know about stuff like this so that they don't get to think they are possessed.





Always remember "You are a conqueror"

RELATIONSHIPS (FUD 4 THOUGHT)

Everyone wants a fairy tale relationship  Where the story line goes like this On one bright Saturday afternoon at the mall I was just checking out some dresses when suddenly my purse fell I reached to pick it when he decided to do that for me I looked at him and it was love at first sight We started talking and it felt like we had known each other forever Shortly after we started dating This guy was just amazing He understood me and accepted my flaws  He was just my kind of man The love was deep and I loved every inch of it Years after, he popped the question   And I gladly accepted And we've lived happily ever after till now These kind of stories doesn't exist in reality Trust me....they don't In the beginning of every relationship is very lovely and sweet but getting to the middle of it, things become very sour And that is where questions start popping up in our  minds "Why is he/she doing this to me?, does he/she...

UPLIFTMENT 2

People always complain that their work is not going well People always attribute their faults to something People always think they have the most problems People always compare themselves to others People always envy others just because of what they have be it money,fame, beauty etc. But you forget that God is the maker and provider of everything He alone can make you successful Many at times we forget to just say thank you to Him. The fact that we are still alive and counted among the living, the only thing He needs from you is your praises The fact that we are not dead, we can still do more and achieve everything if only we call on to Him And make Him the ruler of our lives Just do what you have to do and leave the rest to God Almighty And He will surely deliver if only you believe in him and trust him Don't compare yourself to other people I know sometimes it is frustration but... Do you even know what they go through everyday? They may even want what you have ...

FUD FOR THOUGHT 2

True words were never spoken unless you associate your life with some people your life will improve. Anytime you tolerate mediocrity and others it increases your mediocrity. An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people. As you grow your associates will change. Your friends will not want you to go on, they would want you to stay where they are. Friends that don't help you climb will want you to crawl. Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dreams. Those that don't increase you will eventually decrease you. Consider this never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems with somebody who is incapable of contributing to the solution because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how. Not everyone has the right to speak into your life. You will certainly get the worse of the bargain when you exchange your ideas with the wrong person. Don't foll...
