A member asked:

Is it possible to treat anxiety after giving birth or postpartum depression without taking drugs?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Several things: A good walk/run is always helpful to boost endorphins. Eat a healthy balanced diet. Consider drinking some calming caffeine free teas several times a day. Get someone to watch your child and invest in a good nap everyday. Consider trying some St John's Wart supplements but clear with your MD first. Avoid alcohol. If pretty outside try to get some sunshine everyday - taking sun safety precautions.
