In this episode, Trisha shares her raw and powerful experience surviving postpartum psychosis. She describes her second pregnancy when she was diagnosed with bipolar, a traumatic birth experience involving induction, and then the development of postpartum psychosis with her third baby. We talk misconceptions of postpartum psychosis from media portrayals, the onset of her symptoms during labor, and the lasting impact on her life, custody of her children, and marriage. She reflects on the stigma around postpartum psychosis, the difficult intersection of medication and pregnancy, and the role of both psychiatry and therapy in her recovery journey.

Trisha’s story is a story of resilience. With honesty and courage, she challenges the stereotypes and reminds us that diagnosis, treatment, and support can make all the difference.
