How many years does postpartum depression last?

The symptoms of postpartum depression can last for a long time, usually up to one or two years, but as long as we do a good job of conditioning, it will generally disappear in a few months. This is mainly because we need to know how to regulate postpartum depression. Many postpartum women suffer from depression because they are irritable due to their baby’s crying or illness. If the mental stress cannot be relieved, it can easily lead to depression. I hope husbands can understand their wives’ difficulties.

How many years will postpartum depression last? Because each mother's specific condition is different, and the conditioning methods are also different, the duration of postpartum depression is also different. For some mothers, postpartum depression is not very serious, and if they make timely adjustments after the onset of the disease, the disease will not last long, and generally their body and mind will gradually recover after a few months. However, some mothers' conditions are very serious and they do not receive timely conditioning in their lives. Then this situation will not only not improve, but may further worsen, and may even cause serious mental illness, which will cause great harm to their physical health.

So how should postpartum depression be treated?

1. The mother should adjust her mentality, try to control her emotions, maintain a positive and optimistic mood, and communicate more with her family and husband. Don't lose your temper at will, and don't immerse yourself in negative emotions for a long time, otherwise it will aggravate the symptoms.

2. Family members should take appropriate nursing measures, give sufficient care to the mother, and understand and support the patient and not quarrel with her.
