I dont know kazoo, I dont even know what post partum means. Im too lazy to look it up in the dictionary. The answer to your question, I dont know. I do know there are some Pdocs who have a special "area of interest" in post partum depression and I can tell you from what Ive been told, post partum depression can be an especially severe and nasty type of depression. Frequently involving psychosis, rage, etc.
