Dear Scarlet The Story of my Postpartum Depression by Teresa Wong is a beautifully honest story about her experience as a mother of a newborn.

Oh my goodness, this is such an important read. I’m so thankful that Teresa Wong created this.

I have a few friends that have experienced postpartum depression, and I wish I had read this earlier so I could both try to help more and recommend this book to them if they were feeling up to it.

While I can’t personally relate to the postpartum element, I can certainly relate to the depression and sense of hopelessness.

This account was just raw honesty. The author didn’t shy away from the darker elements.

The artwork was a lovely element to the overall creation of this. The art was simple, but very powerful.

My Favorite Passage:
Never be afraid of your feelings. Although they may overwhelm you at times, there is a strength that is born out of weakness.

My Final Thoughts:
Whether you’re an experienced mom, a new mom, an expecting mother, or just someone who knows someone that fits the previous criteria, I highly recommend this to you.

I think we can all use some education on postpartum depression so we can be there to help ourselves and others.
