Mental Health Association of Maryland is the state’s only volunteer, nonprofit citizen’s organization that brings together consumers for unified action.

The Mental Health Association of Maryland believes that mental health care is a fundamental human right that includes emotional health, but also so much more: improved physical health, addiction recovery, lower health care costs, greater equity and opportunity, and the capacity to realize our hopes and dreams. We’re committed to ensuring the wellbeing of all Marylanders through advancing public policy, monitoring service quality, providing training and education, leading systems change, and advancing new evidence-based treatments.

The “baby blues” are common after giving birth and typically improve within a week or two. But when feelings of sadness, hopelessness, anxiety or overwhelm persist or interfere with daily life, they may be signs of perinatal depression.

Perinatal depression can occur during pregnancy or after childbirth, and it is treatable with professional help. Knowing the signs can help you recognize when it may be time to reach out for support.
