15. It's called post-par tum psychosis. It's real, it's dangerous, and
doctors ignore women when they tell them they have thoughts of hurting their children. My doctor told me I was young and I'd get over it . . . well I didn't. I had a psychotic episode but did not kill my child or myself. My psychosis from reality lasted over 7 months and no one knew . . . not even my doctor. I knew there was something wrong with me but had such irrational thoughts; however, I was able to function everyday, go to work, do what I needed to do. Only problem was I saw things that were not there and whispers. I think God I finally went to a psychiatrist, after going to about 10 different doctors), and he immediately hospitalized me for 6 weeks. I have never had another problem but he also told me NEVER to have anymore children and I didn't. My son is now 28 and has given me a beautiful grandson.
