“Doctors prescribed me medication, my emotions were completely shut off.”


The doctors cornered me.

After giving birth I had enormous fears. Fear that something would happen to my child.

The feeling took over, and I became afraid of the world.

My work was no longer a safe place either.

Doctors prescribed me medication. All my emotions were gone.

But I had to keep taking the medication, otherwise I had to go back to work.


After 8 months I quit cold turkey. I wanted my life back.

I went to seek help.

Learning to let go of my child I found very difficult.
