Lindsay is a mom who was blindsided by a situation that affects 1 in 5 women after childbirth.  After the birth of her son, she struggled for 6 years through postpartum depression.  She bravely stared in and co-produced a riveting documentary called When The Bough Breaks that you need to watch even if you're not a new mom.

What we chat about: The importance of getting a good doctor and continuing on until you find treatment that works for you.
What postpartum depression can look like.
How the Gerszt's preserved their marriage through it all.
How the spouse of a woman with a perinatal mood disorder also is enduring a trial.
