May 1 - 7, 2024 is World Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week. According to https://lnkd.in/drF6dtM, Worldwide, as many as 1 in 5 women experience some type of perinatal mood and anxiety disorder (PMAD). In addition, perinatal mood disorders affect the entire family. Many people don’t realize that about 1 in 10 dads develop depression during this time. As caregivers, what can we continually do to bring attention to essential mental health resources for mothers, fathers, and families? #maternalmhmatters #MaternalMentalHealthMonth #maternalmentalhealthawarenessweek #maternalmhmattersweek #MaternalMentalHealth

At Delfina, we recognize the importance of fathers' health, including mental well-being. Did you know new dads can experience postpartum depression too? Supporting men's mental health leads to better outcomes for the whole family. This week, let's break the stigma and ensure all parents feel supported. Here are a few ways to help: • Encourage open dialogue about feelings and challenges. • Provide access to mental health resources. • Promote self-care and stress management. Strong families start with healthy parents. Let's make sure every dad has the support they need. #MensHealthWeek #MentalHealthMatters #DelfinaCare

May is a crucial month dedicated to raising awareness about mental and maternal health, particularly significant for Latina mothers. As a Latina who has experienced postpartum depression and anxiety, I understand the stigma attached to mental health within our culture. However, it's vital to break this silence and embrace openness about our struggles. By sharing our experiences, we can create a supportive environment that encourages seeking help and destigmatizes mental health challenges. This month serves as a reminder that self-care and seeking support are not signs of weakness but acts of strength and resilience within our community. #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #maternalhealth #mentalhealth
