JIGYNA PATEL: I AM ONE Undiagnosed Postpartum Psychosis Survivor (PPA, PPD, Psychosis)
Show Notes

On today’s episode, we’re chatting with Jigyna Patel - Houston-area mother of 3, and passionate perinatal mental health advocate who volunteers in more than one PSI program - pretty incredible! She shares about the power of accepting and receiving help, and how her experience with Postpartum Anxiety, Depression & Psychosis drives her to provide invaluable support and services that new parents and families deserve. Oh, and one last thing:  we'll hear from Jigyna in the coming weeks for Part 2, when we dive a bit deeper into her experiences with Postpartum Psychosis, parenting in South Asian culture, and what it's like having twins.
