Postpartum Depression (PPD): What Dr. Lee Had to Say


Over the last several years, postpartum depression (PPD) has become a growing concern among mothers and healthcare providers. According to a recent Wall Street Journal article, some researchers estimate that one in five new mothers in the United States suffers from mood and anxiety disorders during pregnancy and up to a year after giving birth. That comes out to around 800,000 mothers every year. Tragically, many of these mothers are unable to get help for their PPD, and many are at risk of long-term depression and suicide.1


In response, pharmaceutical companies have brought two new drugs to market for the treatment of postpartum depression (PPD). The first drug, Brexanolone, is a liquid that is administered intravenously. The second drug, which the FDA approved in August 2023, is the first pill for postpartum depression in the USA. It is called Zuranolone and has the brand name “Zurzuvae”.


While the FDA has approved both of these drugs for the treatment of PPD, what would Dr. Lee have said about them? Fortunately, his research and writings give us a very clear picture of what Dr. Lee would say.

Dr. Lee's Reflections on September 11


At this time, on the 22nd anniversary of the tragedies of 9/11, we send you our best wishes for your wellness, and for your inner peace. Dr. John Lee wrote a powerful and compassionate article right after the horrific attacks on 9/11/01 in the USA, and you are welcome to read that by clicking on the link below. He ended with these beautiful words:



“…. I encourage you to remember that the only truly safe place that each individual always has available is within. Regardless of your religious persuasion, or lack of it, all of us have the power to create peace inside of ourselves in any given moment. It’s not always easy, but it’s always possible, and it’s always the optimal way to meet whatever is going on outside of yourself. You can be at peace inside yourself and still be courageous, decisive, and strong; in fact, these qualities can come forth even more if they come from a place of peace.”
