And she would even got overwhelmed with irritation when seeing the minor infractions of her children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, the combination of loneliness, despair, and anxiety, was like a fierce monster, gradually reared its ugly head, making her unable to generate energy about anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFirst I had thought the only thing that wasn\u2019t on the right track was my poor sleep and irregular schedule.\u201d Ella said, \u201cBeing a mother of two children is like running a never-ending marathon.

And according to Mental Health Foundation, more than 9000 women in Wales are struggling with the issue. However, the appearance of post box in Cardiff Central Library allows more people to send hopes and support to those sufferers as well as share their personal experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being an old sufferer and new supporter, Bethany once considered her abnormal behaviors as \u201cthe baby blues\u201d in the earlier time but soon found herself stood in a much worse place. \u201cI felt like I was in a funk I could not pull out of, even though I desperately wanted to. It was a vicious cycle of rage outbursts followed by extreme guilt over my behavior.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although faced with severe perinatal mental health problems, there are only a few mothers choose to reach out for help due to the social stigma as well as the doubts on their abilities to be good mothers. \u201cOur society still does not embrace the notion that a woman can be a loving mother and experience devastating feelings of loss and sadness.\u201d Karen Kleiman, an author said in her book \u201cThe Art of Holding in Therapy\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719-500x334.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/shutterstock_440651719-500x334.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>Mothers suffer from mental problems try to hide in darkness.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the situation worse, even sufferers themselves feel ashamed of their behaviors, with some are terrified of being depriving the custody of their children because of the mental problem. \u201cRegardless of my behavior, I still loved my kids. I was so afraid that if anyone knows about my bursts of anger they would have them taken away.\u201d Bethany said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And a survey conducted by the Royal College of Nursing has shown that 50% of mothers in the research admitted that they were worried about feeling depressed when their babies are between eight months and three-quarters old. Carmel Bagness, professional lead at the RCN said: \u201cToo many parents worry that going through depression or anxiety means they will be deemed unfit parents, and this can be a hugely damaging assumption which is putting lives at risk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now groups of people in the society have given their increasing attention to getting rid of this outdated stigma and encouraged women who suffer from mental problems to seek help as soon as possible. Maternal Mental Health Alliance is a charity and has united over 90 relevant organizations across the UK, bringing advanced psychological therapies and equipment, professional knowledge as well as attentive services to the sufferers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-1024x614.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-1024x614.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-300x180.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-768x461.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-1536x921.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-500x300.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15.jpeg 1566w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-1024x614.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-1024x614.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-300x180.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-768x461.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-1536x921.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15-500x300.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG15.jpeg 1566w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>Mental Health Community Teams has been working on providing easy access to treatment in every area (greened one) (photo attributed by the Maternal Mental Health Alliance).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As one of the few organizations which are independent of MNHA, Maternal Mental Health Research Collaborative has been actively involved in changing the hard situations of mothers with perinatal depression. They even bring the sufferers into their research programs and creating videos by encouraging them to share their stories. This not only help researchers better understand people&#8217;s challenges and offer professional aids but also as a way to help them release stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to the organization, the gift company Red Letter Days and mental health charity PANDAS launch the \u201cpost box\u201d are aiming to raise awareness of perinatal mental health. In this way, the sponsors try to make this year\u2019s Mother\u2019s Day quite unforgettable and they receive quick responses soon after the project starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI send this message to those mothers, telling them perinatal depression is not something that needs to be shamed. It\u2019s just a hard period that you will finally come through. Catherine, who once was struggling with perinatal depression said, \u201cAlso embrace your problems and voice help whenever you need. If we want people to understand us, we ourselves need to make the first step.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"2273\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9.jpeg 1080w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-143x300.jpeg 143w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-487x1024.jpeg 487w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-768x1616.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-730x1536.jpeg 730w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-973x2048.jpeg 973w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-500x1052.jpeg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"2273\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9.jpeg 1080w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-143x300.jpeg 143w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-487x1024.jpeg 487w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-768x1616.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-730x1536.jpeg 730w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-973x2048.jpeg 973w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2020\/03\/WechatIMG9-500x1052.jpeg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On this year\u2019s Mother\u2019s Day, we give our attention not only to these great heroes around us, but also the issues they face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":413,"featured_media":54223,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[330],"coauthors":[650],"class_list":["post-54198","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-global-city","tag-mental-health"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 -
