Postpartum Anxiety

Postpartum Anxiety Treatment in Norman, OK | Integral Psychiatry, PLLC

What Is Postpartum Anxiety?
Postpartum Anxiety (PPA) is a mental health condition that affects mothers during the postpartum period, causing intense and persistent worry or fear. Unlike the occasional concerns many new parents experience, postpartum anxiety can interfere with daily functioning and your ability to bond with your baby. While it’s common to feel overwhelmed, PPA is treatable, and with the right care, you can find relief and peace of mind.

Symptoms of Postpartum Anxiety
Postpartum anxiety symptoms may include:

• Constant worry about your baby’s health or safety

• Feeling restless, irritable, or on edge

• Racing thoughts or an inability to relax

• Difficulty sleeping, even when your baby is sleeping

• Avoiding certain activities or situations out of fear

• Feeling overwhelmed or unable to cope with daily responsibilities

If these symptoms resonate with you, it’s important to know that help is available. At Integral Psychiatry, PLLC in Norman, OK, we’re here to support you through this challenging time.
