About this ebook
Mark Williams led a content life; from a working-class background, he worked his way up into a promising career and then met the love of his life.
When his wife Michelle fell pregnant, it seemed as though everything had fallen into place for them.But when Michelle's labour didn't go well, she fell into a deep, dark depression. Mark too felt as though he had lost something, succumbing to feelings of stress, anxiety, and depression. He had never heard of fathers going through postnatal depression, but with a baby that wouldn't stop crying, and a wife he could no longer connect with, he felt like he was losing himself more and more each day. So he found solace in old habits, and found his escape at the bottom of a bottle.A touching story from a rarely explored perspective, Daddy Blues tells the tale of a man learning to deal with a problem he never knew he could have.
