Perinatal Anxiety and Depression with Julie Borninkhof of PANDA

Perinatal depression and anxiety is experienced by 1 in 5 new mother’s and 1 in 10 new fathers/partners. Having a baby is a big change for a mother and their partner. Not only will the baby impact the mother physically, emotionally, socially and their relationships, it will also impact hormones and the mental space of both the mother and their partner. We speak with Julie Borninkhof, CEO of Perinatal Anxiety and Depression Australia (PANDA) about this transition. PANDA offer the only national helpline focusing on perinatal anxiety and depression. Julie reflects on what they’ve observed and heard from mothers, partners and friends via their support line as well as the services available to new families.   You can find Perinatal Anxiety and Depression Australia at: panda.org.au   The PANDA helpline is: 1300 726 306   For emergency support contact: 000 for police, ambulance or fire services  13 11 14 for Lifeline, a crisis support and suicide prevention service for all Australians 1300 726 306 Perinatal Anxiety and Depression (PANDA) National Helpline 03 9935 7400 GriefLine National Helpline 1800 250 015 Alcohol and Drug Support Line 1800 858 858 National Gambling Help Line 1300 22 46 36 Beyond Blue
