Andrea Yeats HAD gone to the doctor for PPD, and she was on medication. Unfortunately, as we all know, meds frequently need to be adjusted before the right drug and dosage is found.
Because PPD affects women, it has not been taken very seriously as a medical problem. Not enough research has been done, not enought public education has been done, and not very many people who have suffered from it have come forward. One great exception is Marie Osmond, who wrote a book about her experience with PPD.
We all need to know more about PPD before we judge Andrea Yeats. There but for the grace of God...
