National Maternal Depression Awareness Month 2023
National Maternal Depression Awareness Month, observed each May, is dedicated to raising awareness about the mental health challenges many mothers face during and after pregnancy. It highlights conditions like postpartum depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders that can impact a mother’s well-being and her ability to care for her child. The month aims to reduce stigma, promote early screening, and encourage supportive conversations about maternal mental health. Health professionals and advocacy groups use this time to share resources and educate the public. By increasing awareness, the goal is to ensure more mothers receive timely help. Supporting maternal mental health benefits not only moms but also their children and families.
