9 Famous Moms Who Struggled with Postpartum Depression

8. Amanda Peete

Amanda Peete says she had a really “euphoric” pregnancy, but experienced some serious PPD on the flip side after giving birth to her daughter Frankie. She said she felt “sleep deprived beyond belief” and was generally ambivalent about her new role as mother. In a Gotham magazine interview, the 2012 actress revealed, “I want to be honest about it because I think there’s still so much shame when you have mixed feelings about being a mom instead of feeling this sort of ‘bliss.’ I think a lot of people still really struggle with that, but it’s hard to find other people who are willing to talk about it.”
