MDAM offers various types of support for those suffering with mood disorders all over our province. Check out the list below for all current support groups we are offering:
Postpartum Warmline
Postpartum Mood Disorders are not character flaws or signs of weakness; they are the most common complications of childbirth. Early recognition and prompt treatment can help you manage your symptoms — and enjoy your baby. For a warm voice to talk to, call our Postpartum Warmline – 204.391.5983. We are here to listen and offer support and guidance to mothers and their families when they need it most. Remember, Postpartum Depression can affect any new mother. You are not alone.
