"An emotionally charged yet sensible treatise. Just Buy Her a Dress and She'll Be Fine should be soothing to those suffering from these issues, as well as helpful to those who don't understand the complexity of the problem. The key is Gremillion's keen honesty and forthrightness; she is not afraid to lay herself bare, while providing a cogent and informative overview of this multifaceted topic. This story of triumph is inspiring and informative, and should be highly helpful to a wide array of readers." Self-Publishing Review, ★★★★

* The author will donate at least 10% of the proceeds of this book to various charities and organizations in order to provide support for, and raise even more awareness of Postpartum OCD, Anxiety, Depression and other postpartum mood disorders .Who wants to read a depressing book about depression? With Chapters like I Didn't Even Know the Cat Was In the Bag, This Isn't the Kid I Ordered, and Men Don't Get Depression and Women Don't Poot, this book will help to heal you through laughter. The author Amanda once had someone tell her that they bought someone a new dress so she would not get postpartum depression. If only it were that simple. After having the baby, the mother typically gets less medical attention and fewer checkups than the baby. She is expected to continue her everyday duties and care for a newborn while recovering. Until having a child herself and realizing how little she or those around her knew about postpartum mood disorders, she now tries to raise awareness. Amanda faced the death of her father, her grandfather, the loss of her job, and a new baby in a period of less than two years. She eventually found herself questioning the existence of God for the first time in her life, losing the desire to live, facing the possibility that her marriage might be over, and the loss of her own identity. In an uplifting story that will bring you tears and laughter, Amanda finds herself again and finally bonds with her daughter as she fights for her marriage, her soul, her identity and the desire to live again.

I loved reading Amanda's book. The book might help you understand yourself better if you are struggling with your emotions, etc. It also helps you to understand your friends better if you see someone else going through hard times. It's very helpful for people to know you're not the only one with these feelings.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Wonderful Book
Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2020
This book tugged at my heart strings and made me laugh all at once. I love the author's use of humor to cope with the difficult subject matter. It was a nice break from the usually clinical books surrounding the topic of postpartum motherhood. Definitely give it a read. You won't be disappointed.
