On the Cape we are VERY lucky to have support group options for Moms navigating Postpartum Mood and Anxiety Disorders. When I experienced them there was nothing to be found and many places still have none. The healing that takes place in a good peer support group is a game changer. Suzan D. Scharr runs this fantastic group in Falmouth at Cape Cod Church on Mondays from 3:00-4:30 pm ET. Given the current state of COVID-19 prevention planning the group is being facilitated via Zoom. For more information please contact the group leaders indicated on the flyer. Sending love, healing and health.

PPD made me feel anguish and pain that was easy to drown in. It annihilated who I believed I was, and I watched my foundation crumble at my feet. I was being asked to honor and grieve the trauma of my labor and postpartum experience. There were many times when I didn’t believe I could. PPD forced me to very gradually, and with much self care and compassion, build a new and stronger foundation, a more purposeful future – one that honored boundaries, authenticity and truth. A future that gave me permission to no longer listen to the programming of my past and instead offered me the opportunity to turn my heart and mind to the rumblings of my soul. Painting this provided healing. – Erin
