A Glimpse of Light For Raina

Postpartum Depression

Clear thread now flows freely on both cheeks Raina, feels so stifling if you have to go back to remember what has been held back in his long time.

Yumna held onto both of Raina's hands, trying to calm her patient who was currently shedding grief. It is not the first thing for Yumna to face a patient like Raina. It's just that the problems faced are different that cause patients depression.

"If you don't feel like telling it yet, it doesn't matter. I will" Yumna had not yet finished her words, Raina had already started to open her mouth telling her stories.

Raina recounts the beginning of her pregnancy, her, about her marriage which was only as a status to cover up the disgrace until the last she had to accept with a very stifling sense of her heart when her in-laws asked to part with her husband which at that time Raina began to love her husband. All Raina told me without being missed, Raina seemed to repeat the track record of her most difficult times a few months ago.

Yumna was very concerned about Raina's condition, at a young age like Raina who has not even nineteen years old it has received tremendous inner pressure plus Raina who at that time just gave birth and became a young mother, certainly makes Raina stressed even though outside Raina looks tough, but actually all of it is left buried in her heart.

"Is there anything else in your heart? Let's say let's make you really feel comfortable." asked Yumna again.

Raina shook her head in response she already did not want to tell anything more.

Yumna hugged Raina like she was hugging her own sister, she was able to deduce what had happened to this young mother in front of her.

Now Raina was sitting together next to her mother who was holding Al who was asleep. They are confronted by Yumna, the psychologist who handles Raina.

"From Raina's bold story she told me, I can conclude that Raina is experiencing postpartum depression. Postpartum depression is actually a continuation of the onset of the onset of the baby blues syndrome a few days after Raina gave birth. Postpartum depression itself occurs because of a problem that makes it more stressful, one of which is yes, the thorny problems in his marriage that increasingly make him depressed" said Yumna.

Riska's mother held her daughter's hand to encourage her that everything would be fine.

"Raina is very lucky to still have a sensitive and responsive mother with Raina's condition, so her mother immediately brought Raina to control Raina's condition. In the problem of depression faced by Raina at this time, it must be needed people who really understand him so that the condition of his heart is always calm, do not feel excessive sadness again, he said, that way I'm sure Raina will be able to recover from her depression. If this continues, it is likely to be very dangerous for his soul and also a danger for the little one who will continue to be the target of his impingement" said Yumna reminded.

Raina and Riska's mother only listened to the explanation given by the doctor well.

"Ehm, I can ask you please, the next control along with his partner to come here. Raina's husband should know, what's going on with Raina. And I also ask that Raina be more open to her family or partner if there is a problem, do not be held alone. I will give anti-anxiety medication and also antidepressants. The medicine should be taken routinely, yes. Remember next month we meet again on the same date and at the same time." message Yumna.

Raina gave a nod of her head in response. After getting a detailed explanation from Yumna, Riska and Raina's mother said goodbye to go home.

In the car, Raina rests her head and Al is in her lap. While Riska's mother, was behind the wheel to drive the four-wheeled vehicle.

"What did you feel after you checked?" ask Ms. Riska.

"Raina is relieved, Mom. Like a stone held in this chest was destroyed when Raina told her with doctor Yumna. Raina also felt comfortable in such a gentle way and made Raisa feel no fear." Raina replied.

"You have to be strong, Rai. Don't let your anger control you. Remember what Doctor Yumna said earlier, you must not keep anything yourself. You have to be open, let communication be well established. Let all the problems that were yesterday do not you remember again. You have to convince your heart, there is still Al who really needs your love and attention" said Ms. Riska.

"How can you not remember, Mom? If every time you see Satria, Raina must be reminded of the incident." Raina grumbled.

"I mean mom, you don't think too much. Taken quiet, brought happy. If you think too much, you are older than your mother for a long time." joked Riska's mother so that her child can smile.

"Wouldn't want to, Raina will be like a granny." ketus Raina by pursing her lips.

Riska's mother laughed to see Raina who began to want to be invited to joke again. Al laughed, though he did not know what his grandmother was laughing at.

"How did Raina tell this to Satria, Mom? Raina was afraid, but Satria did not want to accept Raina's condition like this." asked Raina who returned sad.

"What the hell, you're this? Just told you not to think strangely. You are like this because of who? You haven't tried su'uzon yet. If you don't dare to talk to Satria, I'll talk to her. I'm sure he'll understand." replied Ms. Riska.

Raina was speechless at her mother's words without refuting a single word.

"Already, life is enjoyed, Rai. Look at your mother, what kind of talk will be by the lips of netizens, just relax. Mother never even thought or entered into the heart of their evil talk. Mom's hungry now, you want to eat?" ask Riska's mother in the middle of advising her son.

"You want, Mom. Raina is also hungry, what else from earlier Raina's power has been sucked up as Al continues." replied Raina.

"It's up to mom, huh. Raina's coming, I'm the one who paid." Raina laughed after teasing her mother.

Riska's mother just shook her head with her child, she also felt so happy when she saw Raina can laugh again with loose.

At first glance Raina remembered Satria's message to shop for home supplies.

"Oh yes, Mom. Last night Satria gave Raina money to buy our home. Do you mind if you accompany Raina shopping after dinner?" ask Raina.

"Mother anyway, it's okay as long as you can. Mom is still strong, though. Take it easy." replied Ms. Riska.

While in the hospital, Erlina went straight to her best friend who was still in her room.

Tok, tok, tok ...

Erlina knocked on the door first, before she entered her friend's room. After getting an answer from within, Erlina came in.

"Eh, you're Lin. I think patients again." said Yumna.

"Hehehe, there's no way, there's another patient. It's a break" Erlina said.

"What's wrong, come here?" ask Yumna.

"Yes, there's nothing, anyway. It can't be, I'm coming for you. Usually, we rest together." replied Erlina while putting her bag on her best friend's desk.

This time off was indeed used by Erlina to find information about Raina.

"Hahaha .. yes, yes. Come, eat together." take Yumna who also took out her lunch box.

Erlina and Yumna rarely eat hospital bags, not because the food provided by the hospital is not healthy. However, they prefer to bring their own supplies from home.

"Hmmm, I saw that there was a girl with her mother carrying a baby into your room. New patient?" ask Erlina.

"Oh, that. Yes, new patient. Her name is Raina, the girl. She's a young mother, the baby that the middle-aged mother brought with her is her child. Her mother brought her here to check her son's mental state" Yumna replied.

"Young mother? What age is that kid, what happened to him?" asked Erlina again with a surprised expression.

"His age is eighteen, she is pregnant from the results of sexual abuse against him. And she had postpartum depression, after having baby blues syndrome a few days after giving birth. I'm very concerned about his psychic condition." Yumna paused her talk, drank her drinking water and breathed her in for a moment before she went back to telling stories.

Erlina was completely shocked when she found out what had happened to Raina. However, as much as possible he covered it in front of Yumna.

Yumna always told her best friend, if after counseling her patients. For him, Erlina is a great place to share stories and be able to be a friend who can exchange ideas.
