Manage episode 358125062 series 2793015
In this episode, Patrick Duganz shares his own personal experiences of his rough and abrupt entry into fatherhood. He is walking proof that Perinatal Mood Disorders can affect dads too and that, when they do, they're often compounded by layers of misinformation and feelings of helplessness. As Patrick's son grew, so did he and Patrick discovered his passion for helping other dads find their way too. Now, Patrick is the Father Engagement Specialist for Gallatin County Public Health and his story is enlightening and vital to understanding a less talked about topic when it comes to supporting new moms and dads.
