I Was Prepared For Postpartum Depression. I Wasn't Ready For The Rage.
[[link removed]]
Sometimes I think about the questionnaire at my six-week postpartum checkup to
screen for PPD. I appreciated the check-in, but at the same time, I wanted to
laugh at how clearly I could identify the “right” answers, and how totally that
sheet of paper failed to capture the fact that a newborn is basically an
asteroid that hits your life as you know it – and six weeks is just the
beginning.
Today, Amanda Schupak has a very raw, very honest piece about how she braced
herself for the classic PPD symptoms, then found herself caught off guard by the
sheer rage she felt when she hit the toddler years: “I could feel it rising,
burning the backs of my eyes, tightening my scalp, but I was powerless to stop
the deluge. It was like standing in front of a tidal wave and watching it crash
down on me.” Being a journalist, she went looking for answers – give a read and
see if what she learned sounds familiar.

Jennifer E. Rizzo doesn’t simply run marathons – she runs ultramarathons of more
than 26.2 miles, often on trails in the woods. You’re probably wondering what
would possess her – and you wouldn’t be the first: “A lot of people ask me why I
do this. I know they’re thinking, why would a mother of two small kids run
hundreds of miles?” Her answer will make you think.
