A list of celebrities who have battled postpartum depression

By sharing their personal experiences with their enormous fan bases, celebrities contribute to the speed at which PPD is universally accepted. This is a significant step in the right direction.

Postpartum depression (PPD) symptoms are frequently ignored or denied by those experiencing them because those who have recently given birth frequently experience intense pressure to be perfect and mental health conditions have long been stigmatized.

Fortunately, there are people who have a platform and are willing to talk about their personal PPD experiences in an effort to de-stigmatize the condition and inspire more people to confide in their medical professionals.

Following are some famous celebrities who have opened up about postpartum depression.

According to a source, Angelina "slips into depression mode constantly." Although she has been attempting to control her emotions around her older children, the entire family has been negatively impacted by her mood swings. She has been spending most of her time in bed and only sleeping. She has little energy, and because she is still nursing, she has to remind herself to eat. She laughs inappropriately and cries at random times.

Esha Deol

While the actress was used to caring for a baby, she went through a rollercoaster of emotions after giving birth, and it took her a while to realize that what she was going through was not normal.
