Digressing again,but still in the same tone where mental illness is concerned.
Yet another mother committed suicide brought on by PND. The married daughter of an aristocrat took her life. This tragedy occurred in 2008 when her children were two and 9 weeks respectively,when she appeared to be short-tempered and tearful,which was out of character for Kate Chetwynd. Her diagnosis of PND was made and when she was receiving the appropriate medication,everyone thought that Kate would now be fine. Much the same as Junes' attitude that it'll go away !!
However,it came out that Kate had previously suffered from depression before being married,but hadn't told her husband. Before Kate took her life,her husband had noticed a change in her as though " possessed " by something. On the day of her suicide,she was calm,took the dog for a walk,and didn't return.
The difference in Kates' death and Sheilas' was that Sheila had,and faced some awful issues prior to her death. Issues in which the family were involved with and to Sheila,were the cause of her illness on top of which she also would have suffered from PND too so that was a means to an end.
Poor women. As the news states," Thousands of mothers and babies are at risk of life-threatening psychosis because of a lack of NHS provision.Warning that PND can become a far more severe mental illness. Post partum psychosis can lead sufferers to take their lives and also those of their children."
