April Wilson
April Wilson is a 34-year-old woman from Melbourne who, during her pregnancy, proactively managed her anxiety disorder by staying on medication to mitigate the risk of passing on mental health issues to her future children. Despite her efforts, she experienced severe mental health challenges after the birth of her daughter, Zoe, but has since found hope in recent research indicating that treating maternal depression can help reduce anxiety in children.
