In this deeply vulnerable episode, we uncover a reality that’s almost never spoken about: postnatal depression in men. Our guest — a father of two — shares his raw and emotional story of what happened when his second son was born. With no relationship, no support, and a crushing sense of isolation, he began to unravel. From violent intrusive thoughts about his newborn, to being afraid of himself and bottling it all up, this episode dives into the darkest corners of men’s mental health, fatherhood, and emotional survival. Eventually, therapy and the power of speaking up pulled him out — and today, he has a strong relationship with his son and a new outlook on life. If you’re a dad, a partner, or know someone silently struggling — this episode could be life-changing. Keywords: postnatal depression in men, men’s mental health, fatherhood and depression, intrusive thoughts new dads, emotional vulnerability in men, male therapy journey, breaking the stigma in men’s health.
