Angelina has post-natal depression?

, Prev Next Angelina Jolie is reportedly suffering from post-natal depression after giving birth to two-month-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

UK's Daily Mail reports that the sleepless nights and strain of looking after a six-strong brood is taking its toll on the usually-tough actress.

The newborn twins reportedly suffer from colic, a condition that causes babies to cry excessively, often unable to be calmed down.

Angelina is said to have called doctors in to evaluate the twins' heath, with InTouch magazine saying the stress of the situation has mde her slip into 'depression mode'.

She "has been trying to control her emotions" when around her older kids Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 2, but "her mood swings have been hard on the entire family," their source says.

"She cries at the drop of a hat and laughs at inappropriate times."

I am so glad i am not an actor, lol. They cop so much s**t and yet no one knows them personally. To be judge without looking at ones own back yard is so unfair. Who are we to judge? the media has a bad habbit of making mountains out of mould hills. We all have skeletons in our closets but no one wants to admit them. I am not a fan of Angelina but i feel for her when it comes to post-natel depression. I have been there and its not nice. So i hope she does seek help so she can continue to enjoy the beautiful children both her and Brad have as post-natel depression can change that feeling if not careful and also destroy her family.
Well i think they shloudnt have any more kids and wont i reckon 2 souled do them. Well that's wont i think any way?
Angelina's PND - well it sells the trashy magazines as we all know. I have no opinion of her and do not judge or wish her any harm, I only hope she gets her depression treated, because we all know what untreated depression can cause. She does on the other hand have the finances to employ help. On another note, I read that they are an incredibly generous couple by the way of giving to charity and for that bless them, it is a shame more greedy celebrities don't do the same.
I've been through depression myself, and it's the hardest thing to go through. I think her problem is too many children. When there are too many kids, you can't give them each the time and attention they deserve. Resulting in sibling rivalry. And an exhausted mum. I don't know how she does it, I'd go insane with ONE kid, and I don't even have any yet !!! I wish Ange luck. I think she needs it.
Correct a moodo!! Spot on!!
The issue here is post natal depression. Why comment on the breakup of Brad and Jen people? The facts are that PND can affect any mother and symptoms vary from mild to severe. Having a new baby is hard. Having twins, I imagine really hard. It is highly possible that Ang has PND, as it is so common but who wrote this and where did their facts come from? I am sure in time if Ang has suffered from PND, she will discuss it. I wish them all the best as a family. I think they are great people with a gorgeous family.
Angelina has a partner that will be willing to get her the help she needs, whether medical, or household help, so that she has a chance to rest and recover from the birth of her twins. Right now I'm more concerned about the bad spelling some of you people are exhibiting. It is not "truely" but "truly" it is "I'm" or "I am" not "im", and not "concearned" but "concerned", "rot" not "rott". And CK, I really don't think Angelina is capable of or ever going to impregnate any children. Hater, I think you might mean "Vultures" not "Volchers", these are just a few examples of the terrible spelling that seems to be rife within the Australian community now. What is it saying about our education system, to my mind, it's saying that our system is sadly lacking, if this is an example of how our country's spelling has fallen into such decay. Bring back the old system, the 3 R's atleast the level of spelling and comprehension was much better then than it is now.
Whilst I am by no means a fan of Jolie's, or Pitt's for that matter, I think it is time they sat back and evaluated their lives, and mental health as they will be no good to the children if Jolie has a breakdown.
Maybe it's time she took a year off and enjoyed being a mum to the beautiful children she and Brad share. After all she is human, and Depression can hit all of us. Although I am not particularly fond of her, she has a generous heart and I truely hope that she overcomes her problems and realises that she has a magnificant life and family.
Gonna have to say it again. Angelina did not break up a marriage. Brad chose to be with her himself. There was no gun. No threats. The two of them chose to be with each other. In fact, if anyone "broke up" their marriage, it was Brad and Jen themselves. They could have chosen to work it out, but chose to split. Brad chose to walk away. Everyone is responsible for their own behaviours. Yes, even you!
