Kids on the coast

Need support for post-natal depression?


 Now entering its third year, the Sunshine Coast Post-Natal Depression Support Group has reached dozens of coast women suffering this isolating illness.

“It’s amazing that as many as one in seven women suffer some form of PND and yet, it is still not widely acknowledged as a problem or even talked about,” group co-founder Deb Rule said. “Since starting the group we’ve come across so many coast women suffering this on their own…we just want them to know we are here and they don’t have to feel alone.”




Thanks to psychologist and volunteer group facilitator Lisa Lindley, the free group meets each Wednesday and offers support from other women and positive strategies that potentially help reduce the severity and duration of the illness. To find out more, contact Lisa Lindley on 0417 540 820.
