Double Olympic medalist Ulyana Nigmatullina told that she suffered from postpartum depression after the birth of her daughter.
Nigmatullina became a mother in February last year. This season, the biathlete competes for the team of the Tyumen region.
— Was there postpartum depression?
– Yes. Several people around me have become mothers and, according to my calculations, depression is not a rare phenomenon.
— Are the symptoms irritability, anxiety, guilt?
– Always in a bad mood, despite the fact that it is a happy event. There is total dissonance in my head, hormones are affecting me.
– How long did it last?
— About three months.
– And how to get out of it? Maybe you have some advice?
— The training helped me. They were the ones who took me out of the routine I had. This time I did not resort to the help of psychologists.
— It turns out you needed to get back to your usual routine?
– Yes, because the fear of losing the old life had such an effect.
— Could this problem come back to you later? Or have you sorted everything out?
“I don’t think I succeeded.” Everything went away by itself. If I stay at home, maybe the problem will come back,” Nigmatullina told .
