Know more about postpartum depression in dads

Thank you very much for this important article, and for bringing attention to this too often over-looked problem.

I wanted to let your readers know that postpartum depression in men is a very treatable condition. For most men, the biggest problem is NOT the depression itself, but the fact that think they should try to go it alone and not get help -- and that's the worst thing they can do. Left untreated, postpartum depression often worsens and can lead to other serious consequences for a man and his family.

I thought your readers might also like to know about a web site for men with postpartum depression: SadDaddy. It's the only Internet site specifically for new dads with depression, and includes lots of information, an assessment for new fathers to complete, and an online forum for dads to talk with each other.

Thanks again, and keep up the good work!

Warm wishes,

Dr. Will Courtenay
