Ep 277: PND and me, Rosey Adams from #PNDhour

Jan 16, 2023, 06:00 AM

Mick Coyle is joined by Rosey Adams on this week's Podcast.

Rosey is with us to share her experience of postnatal depression, and other issues around maternal mental health.

The start of 2023 also marks the 9th anniversary of the launch of her Twitter hashtag #PNDhour, which is used every Wednesday to open up the conversation about postnatal, antenatal, and perinatal mental health on social media.

You can take part yourself by searching for the #PNDhour hashtag on Twitter, and joining the conversation between 8pm and 9pm each Wednesday (UK time)

The conversation also looks at the use of the phrase "The Baby Blues" and explores how Rosey's poem "PND and Me" inspired her to speak openly about her experiences.

You can read the poem here and follow Rosey on Twitter
