What is postpartum depression?
Postpartum depression (PPD) is a common, treatable mood condition that can affect mothers in the weeks and months after delivery. It is more than "baby blues" — the feelings are deeper, last longer than two weeks, and do not lift on their own. It is not a weakness and it is not your fault. With the right support, most mothers recover well.
Signs and symptoms to watch for
- Persistent sadness or low mood most of the day
- Loss of interest or pleasure, even in your baby
- Overwhelming tiredness beyond normal new-parent fatigue
- Intrusive or frightening thoughts
- Feeling worthless, guilty, or like a bad mother
- Trouble bonding with your baby
- Changes in sleep or appetite
If you are in crisis

Do I need to visit a clinic in Visakhapatnam?
No. All sessions are online video calls, so you can speak to a counsellor from your home anywhere in Visakhapatnam — including MVP Colony, Madhurawada, Rushikonda, Gajuwaka — without travelling with a newborn.
Are your counsellors qualified?
