{"product_id":"a-mom-like-that-a-memoir-of-postpartum-psychosis","title":"A Mom Like That: A Memoir of Postpartum Psychosis","description":"“A brave and lyrical exploration of motherhood and mental health … as terrifying as it is riveting.” ― Susannah Cahalan, NYT bestselling author of Brain on Fire\n\nEarly motherhood is supposed to be joyous, but for Aaisha Alvi, those early days were ruined by terrifying, delusional thoughts about her baby and family. Far beyond the trials of breastfeeding and getting her baby to sleep, Aaisha’s experience was the antithesis of everything she had ever been told about motherhood.\n\nWhen her second pregnancy ended in miscarriage, Aaisha’s psychosis returned. This time, however, she was blindsided by the unimaginable: voices urging her to stab her daughter and to harm innocent people. Aaisha felt evil, worthy of taking her own life. But each time she sought medical help, she was turned away.\n\nWith unflinching honesty, Aaisha takes readers beyond the vitriol and blame flung at women ― particularly women of colour ― suffering from postpartum psychosis. Her story is a clarion call to increase awareness of a condition that need never result in tragedy and to build support for those affected by it.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1459754506\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1459754506.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Davis PhD  PMH-C, Wendy|Alvi, Aaisha\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
