Chrissy Tagen overcame postpartum depression thanks to John Legend

In April last year, the couple Chrissie Teigen and John Legend became parents of the daughter of the moon, the only thing that marred their happiness is a serious diagnosis of the actress. The attending physician diagnosed a 31-year-old woman with postpartum depression and asked to pay attention to her health and loading on the set.

Krissy Taygen, like many successful Hollywood actresses, immediately after the birth rushed to restore the harmony of the figure and returned to work on the series "Battle of Phonograms." Stress and the desire to be a successful and happy mother immediately reflected on the state of health: weakness, apathy, constant malaise and lack of appetite. Krissy described her condition in the essay for Harpers Bazaar:

Each action caused me a huge effort to get out of bed, I had to find more than one reason, alas, but my favorite work and baby absolutely did not motivate me, but, on the contrary, they introduced me into great apathy. My whole body ached and ached, my back, my shoulders, my wrists twisted, I often cried without cause, the food became a sick subject, sometimes I forgot to eat or could not force myself. But in fact before I carefully watched my diet! On those free days that appeared in my schedule, I stayed at home, lay on the couch and did not go beyond our mansion. It came to the point that when someone came to me wet from the street, I was puzzled, is it really rain? I was in a parallel reality. I was not interested in anything and practically spent all the days on the sofa, I could not force myself to go upstairs to the bedroom to the second floor ... I was next to John, she even lay next to me on the couch to control my condition. Over time, I even moved a part of things and clothes into the closets and the store room of the ground floor, so as not to go up to the second floor.

Despite the serious mental state of the spouse, musician John Legend daily helped her to overcome her lethargic state and get out of depression. According to the actress, it was thanks to him that she came back to normal:

During the illness he was constantly near, he called and worried for me. John is incredible, patient, loving, able to sympathize and understand. It was hard for him, especially when I had to watch with me nightmarish and stupefying reality shows for nine months, but he bravely stood it all. John was responsible not only for our daughter, but also for taking prescribed medications. All this time he tried to make me laugh, only that I was happy and smiling.
