Hello
I am so sorry you're having problems with PPOCD again. When you started feeling good again, was your medication adjusted or did you remain on the dosage that was making you feel better? Are you still on medication?
Dr. Ronald Rosenberg, an OB and psychiatrist who is an expert in the field, says women recovering from PPD should remain on their medication for at least a year after they become symptom-free. The risk of relapse is great if this isn't done.
Rest and proper diet are also very important.
To answer your question, normally once the proper dosage and drug combination is found that works for an individual, there is complete recovery.
If you'd like to talk more, please email or call me at the address or phone number on this website. We want to help you in any way we can.
Love, Helena
