Poems that offer an honest portrayal of the complex realities of motherhood, including the devastating effects of postpartum depression. Maternal mental illness is an ongoing health crisis and deserves awareness, not only in the medical world but in the poetry world, too. Bridget Bell's All that We Ask of You Is to Always Be Happy offers support to current mothers, mothers-to-be, family members of people suffering from perinatal mental illnesses, OB-GYNs, nurses, and any other healthcare providers. Bell uses various poetic forms to shed light on the challenges that come with motherhood, including the physical and emotional challenges of childbirth while celebrating the beauty of women's strength and resilience. Written with deep care and fearlessness, Bell's debut collection is both an educational tool and a powerful component of recovery in that shares others' similar stories.
