It is much easier for any medical professional to quick diagnose and treat, or be quick on the referral to someone else. The health care system is a cattle call.. and is getting worse.. this is HUGE as the largest generation retires and gets old, and the bigger ones are coming down the pipe..Health insurance premiums are going through the roof. Medical malpractice insurance is ridiculous. Doctor's feel comfortable just going about the same old patterns, as there is relatively low risk to them or the patient, and if they pass the buck, the problem is no longer theirs.
As far as studies for post natal or post partem depression. sure, there are lots going on. But those things take time, and willing participants.

Yes, it always amazes me when people complain about the high cost of prescriptions, but many of the top used/most expensive prescriptions could be cut down substantially with taking care of yourself both physically and with mental therapy.
