Becky Lynch Details Her Battle With Postpartum Depression

Becky Lynch appeared on WWE After The Bell today where she discussed a wide range of topics. 

People.com had advance clips of the podcast. During it, she opened up on her battle with postpartum depression following the birth of her daughter. Here is what she had to say: 

“And then it kind of got really, really dark for a few months and I was in a really bad spot,” Lynch said.  “It was kind of one of those things where you’re trying to pull yourself out of it, because you know mentally, ‘God, I’ve got a great life. I’ve got a great husband. I’ve got a great baby, and I’m doing this thing at the highest level that I love.’ But no reasoning with yourself was able to overcome that level of depression,” she says.

“I didn’t know you could get post-weaning depression,” Lynch says. “So, not even knowing that that was a thing I think also hurt me because, why am I feeling like this? Why am I acting like this? And [I was] not realizing that this is actually a common thing that happens and there are ways you can treat it. And once you figure out the cause of all of that, then you’re off to the races and then you’re back and then you can appreciate everything. But yeah, for a few months there, it was rough.”
