    Ok, i know this thread sounds ridiculous, But seriously, would our nervous instincts give us any more of a survival advantage in this kind of situation?. I think my general avoidance of people may assist. Discuss!

    Question for mom's with S/A

    I was just thinking about the future of my wife and I, and thought i would put this out there. Any mom's who live with S/A, after you had your little one, did you have any experience with post-partem (SP?) depression?. And if so, do you think it was made worse by your S/A? how was your S/A...
