And most of them go back to work having not completely recovered from or aware that they are suffering from Postpartum Depression, making them prone to insecurity, irritability, loss in confidence and misunderstandings in the work place.

The #YourSecondHome campaign brings this important issue to light to light and endeavours to turn corporates into support groups for women with Postpartum Depression.

Rajeev Juneja, CEO, Mankind Pharma said, “Last year, we took on the social responsibility of sensitizing workplaces towards pregnant women. As a sequel to our corporate behaviour change effort, this time we wanted to speak to new moms making a comeback at work which led us to Postpartum Depression and the taboo attached to it. With the philosophy of serving life further, we decided to bring it to light”

The campaign has been conceptualized and executed by ADK-Fortune. Akashneel Dasgupta, ECD and Sr. V.P., ADK Fortune said, “A new mom goes through a lot, and not just physically. The importance of her mental well-being deserves a conversation as well. Women with Postpartum Depression, on resuming work go through a lot, and lack of awareness/sensitivity of her peers will make her condition worse. This is our humble attempt not to let that happen”
