The Lindsay Clancy case has put a spotlight on postpartum psychosis, a rare but serious psychiatric emergency that is often misunderstood.

Kristina Delaney, founder and executive director of Cherished Mom and a survivor of postpartum psychosis, joins Scripps News to explain what the condition can look like, how it differs from postpartum depression and why someone experiencing it may not realize anything is wrong.

Delaney also discusses gaps in maternal mental health care, the stigma that can prevent mothers from seeking treatment and what families should know about warning signs.
