You want to hide. You cry. But you don’t understand why. "Am I about to die?" You can't explain this. Where is this monster coming from? That’s precisely what anxiety is, a monster that you try to defeat every day. How can you defeat such a monster while trying to be the best mother you can be?
The Anxious Mom Manifesto is an honest and relatable story of a mom that managed to turn her monster into a master with the help of 18 declarations that became her mantras; filled with tips and life lessons that mothers can use too to control their anxiety on a daily basis, all while juggling motherhood and life.
Using personification, illustrations, pop-cultural references, and a variety of methods, The Anxious Mom Manifesto encourages mothers to start their own path to heal, knowing that they are not alone and that motherhood and mental health matter today more than ever.
According to the World Health Organization, worldwide about 10% of pregnant women and 13% of women who have just given birth experience a mental disorder, primarily depression. In developing countries, this is even higher, i.e. 15.6% during pregnancy and 19.8% after childbirth. In severe cases, mothers’ suffering might be so severe that they may even commit suicide. In addition, affected mothers cannot function properly. As a result, the children’s growth and development may be negatively affected as well. Also, 1 in 7 new moms struggle with anxiety and depression during the perinatal period. The pandemic is exacerbating those struggles and overall mothers with children of all ages have been vocal about their mental health concerns.
Maternal mental disorders are treatable. This is one of the reasons Paola created Momxious, a platform created to offer encouragement, motivation, support, and guidance through content and products for moms with anxiety including this book. When you buy this book and support Momxious content, you will be supporting a movement that seeks to end the stigma of motherhood and mental health.
