Recognising and Coping With Perinatal Depression

We’ve compiled a library of resources to help you understand depression and what it means for you.
Increase Understanding
We blog about living with, managing, and supporting others with depression in a friendly, accessible way. Our resources explain key issues clearly – we don’t believe in complicating things unnecessarily. Plus everything we do comes with a heavy dollop of empathy.
Support Directory
There are some really great organisations out there that can help you, and your family, navigate depression.
There are so many in fact, that we’ve put together a directory of organisations that you might find helpful.
Our Story
Think of us as the knowing nod. You’ve seen it – a slight bob of the head, often accompanied by a smile. A little movement that says, “I understand”, “I’m listening” and “I’m here for you”. That’s us.
We really understand how devastating depression can be. Jobs come to an end, relationships break down and lives can be lost, all through the effect of depression. That’s why the work we do here at Blurt is so important – it not only changes lives, but saves them.
