Love how my professor included how men are also affected with postnatal depression & anxiety. (I'm in Queensland, Australia for those who are wondering)

Surprising indeed.
PS
For those who don't know, Queensland is our equivalent of the Appalachians. It's where we exile our hillbillies and kangaroo rapers, so this is really very unexpected.

Nice. I'm in NZ and know a guy that gives talks about the issue here.
He is well received from what I can tell you says very few services exist for moms in this situation and even less for dads.
