The POEM Video
 This monthly newsletter typically features a small gathering of articles, blog posts, etc., that I think may be helpful to you as a mother. Whether you are struggling with or recovered from a perinatal mood/anxiety disorder, I hope that you find the items shared here beneficial to you in some way.  If you happen across something that you think should be shared here, please let me know!
Love,
Tonya
Clare DurossCheck out this post (link) by the talented and beautiful (local Columbus!) blogger, Clare Duross, about what kind of a mom she is...and the close of her article will hit home with many of you as it's a very common topic of our group discussions.  But, NO SKIPPING ahead to the end.
In the work we've done here at POEM for many years, these confessions are no big surprise.  Feeling overwhelmed ranks at the top.  Must be pretty normal then, eh?  Not a reflection of your worth as a mother?  Nope, it sure isn't.

A great friend (Thank you, Jan!)recently sent me this link to this blogger.  She's a PPD survivor, sharing her message.  Good Stuff.
