When we talk about postpartum depression, most people think of moms—but dads can struggle too.
Studies show that about 1 in 10 new fathers experience postpartum depression in the first year after having a baby. And it doesn’t always look like sadness.
For men, it can show up as irritability, emotional withdrawal, overworking, feeling disconnected, or struggling to bond with their baby.
New parenthood changes everything and mental health deserves to be part of the conversation for both parents.
If you or someone you love is feeling overwhelmed after welcoming a baby, support matters. Therapy can help.
