This book is an account of the author’s family’s history of mental illness and how many of the women in her family for atleast three generations suffered from postpartum depression. She gives an honest look at her own bout with postpartum depression and how she and her husband worked through it with the help of meds, psychiatrists and the support of family and friends. As a sidenote, this book was written fairly recently-she has some things to say about Tom Cruise and his views on postpartum depression and its treatment.
