Amy Adams Suffered Post-Natal Depression
Amy Adams Suffered Post-Natal Depression – Actress Amy Adams was struck down with post-natal depression after she gave birth to her daughter in 2010.
The Oscar winner and her fiance Darren Le Gallo welcomed their first child, Aviana, four years ago, and Adams battled the baby blues for a year after she was born.
She tells Britain’s Telegraph magazine that although she didn’t seek medical help, she knew that something wasn’t right, explaining, “I didn’t do well the first year. I was never diagnosed but I probably had a bit of baby blues.”
When asked if she believes it was post-natal depression, she responds, “Yeah. It’s funny because you don’t realize in the moment. And then looking back now… I mean it wasn’t severe, but I was definitely in a funk that I couldn’t pull myself out of for about year.”
