Self-Help | Non-Fiction Biography
While the famous Osmond smile beamed for the camera, no one,
not even Marie, fully realized the emptiness that loomed
behind the smile. Marie is not alone; more than one out of
ten new mothers experiences post-partum de-pression (PPD)
after childbirth. The mother of seven, Marie became
increasingly depressed after the birth of her youngest
child. One night, she got in her car, leaving her family and
husband, and drove northwith no intention of returning until
she felt she had resolved this crisis. After she went public
with her own experiences with PPD on Oprah and Larry King
Live, the response was overwhelming. Now, Marie shares the
fear and darkness of the depression she overcame, and with
the doctor who helped her through her ordeal, offers the
methods she learned for treating PPD.
