I might have guessed like 25% but not above that. I was really surprised that this number was so high. I might have guessed like 25% but not above that.

I don't recall any women in my family ever discussing depression. Whether they were just in denial, never had any or just didn't talk about it, I'm not sure. Regardless, it will definitely be something that I will discuss with my own children when they are older. Yep, you said it, awareness.

Just like you said, there is a pressure to appear happy and depression often goes undiagnosed. The good news is that with all of the books and studies and mother's willing to share their stories, I think awareness of it is increasing. Glad you found great ways to cope with your own feelings :) Great post. I hate to see those statistics but that doesn’t surprise me, at all.
