A Note From My Heart
As someone who has walked through postpartum depression, intrusive thoughts, fear, shame, and the long road of healing, I want you to know this, you are not a bad mother. You are not broken. You are not alone. Help is available, healing is possible, and brighter days can come, even if they feel far away right now.
