“…As with depression outside of the perinatal period, postpartum depression often co‐occurs with other psychiatric disorders, the most common being generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive‐compulsive disorder, social phobia and agoraphobia (Figueira, Fernandes Malloy‐Diniz, Aurélio Romano‐Silva, Silva Neves, & Corrêa, 2009). In some rare cases, postpartum depression has been linked to suicidality and filicide (Kauppi, Kumpulainen, Vanamo, Merikanto, & Karkola, 2008; Paris, Bolton, & Weinberg, 2009). Alarmingly, studies have also shown that as many as 50% of postpartum depression cases are undiagnosed (Chaudron et al, 2005; Murray, Woolgar, Murray, & Cooper, 2003), and reasons for this statistic include lack of attention on the mental health of the mother by health care providers as well as under‐reporting of symptoms by the mother herself.…”
