New book shares author’s journey with postpartum depression

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) April 12, 2011 -- CHESTER, Calif. – Upon becoming a mother, California author Melissa White began experiencing very disturbing thoughts, thoughts that she could not control or stop. She tried to cope with them as a permanent condition but finally sought the help of a counselor, who helped her discover that the fear and the thoughts were a product of physical abuse she suffered as a child and were triggered after having a baby.

In her new book releasing nationwide this week, “It’s Not the Baby Crying,” White reaches out to other mothers who have had fears triggered by the birth of a child. They don't have to go through motherhood being afraid, she says.

The book shares how White discovered there was hope of stopping the unwanted thoughts and ending the fear she felt inside. By bringing the abuse to the surface, she was able to heal. The author encourages others to confront their fears and begin their own journey from sickness to wellness, from hopelessness to happiness.

Published by Tate Publishing and Enterprises, the book is available through bookstores nationwide, from the publisher at www.tatepublishing.com/bookstore, or by visiting barnesandnoble.com, borders.com, or amazon.com.

White has enjoyed becoming a mother, being a wife to her husband, Ryan, attending weekly Bible studies, and having a professional life in the field of computer engineering. She currently lives with her husband and two daughters in the small mountain town of Chester, California.
