I have experienced anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder or OCD in the past.
I find it hard to ask for help or to let others take care of me.
Before my periods, I usually get sad, angry, or very cranky.
I have been depressed or anxious while I’m pregnant.
I am pregnant right now and I don’t feel happy about it.
I don’t have many friends or family nearby that I can rely on.
Sometimes I don’t need sleep, have lots of ideas, and it’s hard to slow down.
My mother, sister, or aunt was depressed or had a lot of anxiety after her baby was born.
I am stressed about money, housing and how to take care of myself and my family.
My baby is difficult to care for i.e. colicky or breastfeeding is not going well.
I went through infertility treatment to conceive my baby, had a high risk pregnancy or previous miscarriage.
This baby’s or my previous childbirth experiences were traumatic for me.
I have experienced trauma in the past.
My relationship with my partner is not in a good place and is a source of stress for me.
I tend to be a perfectionist and/or letting things go is hard for me.
Time’s up
