Warrior Couple Podcast

In this episode we continue our conversation with Carl and finish discussing what is was like for all of us to experience the first battle with Postpartum Psychosis.

In this episode we read some feedback we received after the first episode. We also discuss the first time that we realized that what we were fighting was bigger than the both of us and that we needed to get professional help. Our friend Carl also joins the podcast as a special guest to discuss what he remembers leading up to the first hospitalization as well as his memories of visiting with Alyssa in the hospital.

Postpartum Psychosis is a rare and terrible affliction that is not often talked about. Our battle started in July 2009 shortly after the birth of our first daughter. We wanted to share our experiences and stories in the hopes that we can help others. In this episode we talk about the start of our relationship, the birth of our first child and the complications that followed that we dealt with for years afterward. This podcast is dedicated to the women that survived, the men that stood by them and in memory of those that didn't make it through.
