A LITTLE SPACE TO UNDERSTAND YOURSELF

Postpartum mental health support.

Your well-being matters, too. If pregnancy or life after birth feels overwhelming, you deserve space to talk and support that takes you seriously.

You can ask for help now

You do not need a screening score to talk to your obstetric clinician, midwife, primary care provider, or a mental health professional. Describe what you have been feeling, how long it has been happening, and what daily life is like.

Talk with someone who understands

The National Maternal Mental Health Hotline offers free, confidential support before, during, and after pregnancy. Call or text 1-833-TLC-MAMA (1-833-852-6262). Postpartum Support International also offers support and help finding care.

Looking for Suboxone treatment?

Suboxone contains buprenorphine and naloxone. SAMHSA’s FindTreatment.gov can help you find facilities offering buprenorphine treatment for opioid use disorder.

Enter your location, then look for “Buprenorphine used in Treatment” under the opioid-medication filters. Contact the provider about medication options, availability, and cost.

GOOD QUESTIONS

A little more reassurance.

A little more information,
so you can feel comfortable starting.

Does this tell me whether I have a condition?

No. A screen can help identify symptoms worth discussing. A qualified professional can consider the full picture, including your history and daily life. A support guide does not produce a screening result.

Can I bring my result to an appointment?

Yes. After completing an interactive check, use “Print my result” to print it or save it as a PDF on your own device. The site does not receive or store that copy.

Do I have to use Better Behavioral?

No. Better Behavioral is our care partner for Kentucky and Indiana. You are free to use any provider, and we also link to independent national resources. Your choice of provider does not affect your result.
