In this eye-opening episode of Gent’s Talk (E#161), supported by Dove Men+Care, host @SamirMourani and Dr. Andrew Howlett dive into the hidden reality of postpartum depression in men — an issue rarely acknowledged but widely experienced. From sleep deprivation and emotional burnout to identity loss and overwhelming pressure, this conversation pulls back the curtain on the quiet crisis many dads face after the birth of a child.
With raw honesty and lived experience, this episode explores the unspoken weight of modern fatherhood — and what it takes to survive it. If you’ve ever felt like you’re supposed to “just handle it,” this conversation might be the validation you didn’t know you needed.
🔍 Topics Covered:
- What no one tells you about becoming a new dad
- The emotional toll of the postpartum period on men
- Why male depression often goes unnoticed
- Breaking the stigma around fatherhood and mental health
- How to find help (and hope) when you're silently struggling
Whether you’re a father, a partner, or just trying to understand the pressures men face — this episode delivers truth, empathy, and real solutions.
