Adele Confides Struggle on Postpartum Depression: "I Was Obsessed With My Child"

Adele's Postpartum Depression has finally gone public. The singer speaks bravely about her personal experience and battle after suffering PPD in silence.

The Rolling in the Deep singer refused to take any antidepressants despite her condition. Adele likewise disagreed with the father of her son, Simon Konecki's, suggestion that she has to talk to other pregnant women. Adele didn't want to talk to anyone. The 28-year-old singer told a source that just like any other mothers; she was too embarrassed and reluctant to talk about it.

Adele's Postpartum Depression was really bad that it even frightened her. In her statement in Vanity Fair: "My knowledge of postpartum -- or post-natal, as we call it in England -- is that you don't want to be with your child."  

While most moms (who are suffering from Postpartum Depression) wanted to stay away from their babies, the singer confessed she had a bad obsession with her now 4-year-old son, Angelo. She struggled with feelings of inadequacy and felt that she had made the worst decision of her life. "You're worried you might hurt your child; you're worried you weren't doing a good job," Adele told the source.

Adele's Postpartum Depression "lifted" after she finally decided to confide to a friend who is also a mother and realized she wasn't alone. In fact, four of her friends felt that they were bad moms.  At the end of the day, the Hello hit maker came up with a thought that she's giving herself an "only me" time once a week for to do whatever she wanted without the baby. Though she admitted that she may feel bad she thinks that it will make her a better mom if she'll give herself a better time.

Adele who was once a massive drinker and a chain smoker put an end to her bad habit after she gave birth to Angelo. She said that it would be a torture to have a hangover with an annoying three-year-old kid.
