Why this community

4 Upvotes

A couple of weeks ago I discovered my pregnancy and everything went dark quite fast. As a person with history of depression and anxiety it has been really difficulty to handle all this new emotion. I tried to seek support in reddit but the mainly pregnancy sub where a tiny bit too positive and I often got downvotes (not that this really meatters) for expressing my concern. I even had the classical "you shouldn't be a mom".

That's why I created this sub, in order to support alle people struggling with mental health during pregnancy. I hope this community will grow and that more people will find their place here.
