I had post partum depression after I gave birth to my son eight years ago. I was not clinically diagnosed or anything, but I knew that the feelings I was experiencing were not normal. I spent a lot of time crying and was easily agitated. I was so frustrated with my son, but it wasn't his fault he hadn't done anything but be a baby. Thank God I had my mother who basically kept him while I slept for a FEW days. After that I was okay. Apparently, I was just THAT tired. I know the issue is a lot deeper for some women, but if you think about it, that woman who drowned all her children? As simple or stupid as it may sound, she may have just been....tired! Tired of being a mother, tired of being pregnant every 10th month. You never know what can make a person snap...(She should still sit in jail for what she did though. No matter how tired she was, to kill her children like that was unexcusable!)
And to answer your question, yes, a woman can recover from post-partum.

No! Post mortem depression only occurs after you are dead. It is a fatal condition.
However, if you mean post partum depression - there are treatments and help and most individuals recover in a relatively short time. If you are experiencing depression or post partum depression you should seek help immediately! Do not waste this valuable time feeling miserable. Do it for yourself and your family.

Ummm, post mortem means after death. I think you're referring to post partum depression. I had mild post partum depression, and I recovered just fine. I took Lexapro (an antidepressant) for a couple of months, and it seemed to help me out. Now I'm as happy as ever! My daughter's now 15 months, and she's the center of my world!

It's called Post-partum. Not Post-mortem. Post-mortem is after death, if someone is depressed after they die. They are never coming back. In reference to the post-partum, mothers do recover, it depends on the how serious it is and how aggressively it's treated.

My post partem only lasted a few days. I pretty much hated everybody and everything except for my daughter. I didn't want to talk to anyone, look at anyone. NOTHING! I just wanted to be with my daughter. It was almost like a tremendous pressure headache. You know the ones .. You can feel it as it starts to go away. That's how my nerves were. I felt it getting a little better everyday.
