In honour of Mental Health Week, here's my comic from the 2016 Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo, about my experiences over the past couple of years with post-partum depression.
If I hadn't bumped my head a couple of weeks ago and sustained a mild concussion (which is getting better!), I had planned to write a little blog post about this piece, and the importance of being open about mental health issues, so that we can contribute to eliminating the stigma that's been assoicated with mental health issues for far too long.
It's thanks to the support of a few people, including the folks at Families Matter, a great local resource for families affected by post-partum depression and other parenting issues, that I was encouraged to write about my situation. This comic may be just the beginning. Stay tuned!
