As Perinatal Mental Health Nurses, we see daily the impact that Postpartum Psychosis has on Mum’s and families. Action on Postpartum Psychosis (APP) is a UK charity. They’re here to make sure mums, parents and families are supported through postpartum psychosis – a severe, but treatable, form of mental illness that occurs after having a baby and affects 1400 new mums in the UK each year.

APP offer information and peer support, facilitate ground breaking research, raise awareness and campaign for improved services.

APP’s life changing peer support network helps women and families affected by postpartum psychosis feel understood, supported and less isolated.
