Post-wedding depression
October 22nd 2008 06:48
Actually, looks like it's a no win situation. Even if we don't get cold feet before marriage we might get the post-wedding depression.
I learned about it in a short article in Sydney Morning Herald's The Good Weekend magazine, and it reports that this post-wedding depression affects 1 in 10 brides (why is it always women who suffer?) - and a few grooms too. It's the feeling of distress that this wedding was the end of all things lovely.
And the cause, besides financial and physical exhaustion strains, could be simply being jealous of another couple having a better wedding than they just had.
So there is goes - pre-wedding cold feet, post-wedding depression, then we eventually will get pre-natal AND post-natal depression, then again if you have more than one child, then menopause (which always get you depressed). It's just too depressing to be women!
Haha.
