I am feeling very anxious for my two month old daughter. Do dads also feel depressed?

A new member in the family, who is now your responsibility, can make you anxious. But having said that, it is true that men also go through postpartum depression. This psychological condition is seen differently in men and women. While some men may display signs of sadness or aloofness, others may exhibit anxiety and even full-blown panic attacks. In fact, a report in the Journal of American Medical Association found that 10% of men exhibit signs of paternal postpartum depression, globally. Here are a few symptoms you must watch out for: - Uncharacteristically irritable - Distances himself from the baby - Family history of depression - Has suicidal thoughts and shares sadness - Spends more time in office
