Postpartum depression
Police investigations are just beginning into the case but some discussions over the sad case of Krystal Cascetta have focused on the dangers of postpartum depression.
According to WebMD: “Postpartum depression (PPD) is a complex mix of physical, emotional, and behavioral changes that happen in some women after giving birth.
“According to the DSM-5, a manual used to diagnose mental disorders, PPD is a form of major depression that begins within 4 weeks after delivery.
“The diagnosis of postpartum depression is based not only on the length of time between delivery and onset but on the severity of the depression.
“Postpartum depression is linked to chemical, social, and psychological changes that happen when having a baby.
“The term describes a range of physical and emotional changes that many new mothers experience. PPD can be treated with medication and counseling,”
Despite the highs of her wedding, marriage and career, Dr Krystal Cascetta was by all means dealing with a lot. Welcoming a baby into that mix would not have been easy and might have set off a bout of postpartum depression.
Other discussions of the case of Dr Krystal Cascetta have mentioned postpartum psychosis and drawn parallels to Lindsay Clancy.
Lindsay Clancy is an American woman from Duxbury, Massachusetts who allegedly strangled her three children on the evening of January 24, 2023.
Two of the children, 5-year-old Cora Clancy and 3-year-old Dawson Clancy, were pronounced dead at the hospital on January 24, 2023, while a third child, 7-month-old Callan Clancy (who turned 8-months old while hospitalized), died on January 27, 2023.
After she strangled the children she attempted to kill herself by jumping from a window. She is now permanently paralyzed from the waist down.
Experts for the defense believe Clancy may have suffered from postpartum psychosis
Since the police aren’t done investigating, one can only speculate but no matter what – we can only wish the bereaved family the best going forward.
