Post-partum Psychosis is also known as Puerperal Psychosis is a mental disorder which can occur after childbirth, anytime during the first trimester. It is when mothers can’t distinguish fantasy from reality. This disorder is more common to first time mothers. Most of the patients are aware they are experiencing abnormalities but only few cares to consult health care providers.
Patients may or may not experience symptoms such as overexcitement, they also tend to talk too much which it doesn’t normally do, they also see and hear things which normal persons can’t see and hear. Lack of focus, word salad or they jumble words which are not related, they also tend to be violent at times due to extreme mood swings, they also feel confused at times, and may experience delusion of grandeur.
Possible mothers at risk are those who have a history of psychological disorders, particularly, psychosis, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Mothers who experienced Post-Partum Psychosis after their first pregnancy have the greater chance of having the same disorder with their future pregnancies.
The etiology of the said disorder is still idiopathic or unknown up to these days. But most medical practitioners have a list of possible causes. On the top of their list is the women’s hormonal imbalance, because during and after pregnancy and childbirth, a mother’s hormones can be thrown out of balance. Another contributing factor is lack of emotional support from the family and loved ones. They must be treated with care because their mood is not stable and they also need affection and support as well. Why? Because they might have low self-esteem because of the physical disturbance, and the new role that they are going to face after giving birth, in addition to that the financial constraint, it can also be a burden to the mother and last but not the least the new life that she will have included the baby.
Post-Partum Psychosis is said to be a serious condition and needs immediate attention. The fact that most women chose not to speak with a health care provider, it is important that their partner or family members play that part, they need to seek medical advice in behalf of the mother. This condition is normally treated with antipsychotic drugs, like treating psychosis and schizophrenia, sometimes antidepressants to treat anxiety as a symptom, therapy and support groups.
