When a one sided questionaire isn't enough!

I came across this article and I couldn't help but think this is so familiar. We need more education and awareness when it comes to parents mental health in the NICU setting. Most of the time a one sided questionnaire doesn't do alot of us justice. I also feel if mental health was talked about more parents wouldn't feel so emabarrassed to admit  their is something going on. Most of the time  parents are hit with overwhelming emotions while in the NICU which makes it 20 times harder to realize something is off with your mental health.  We need more in depth options to help families cope with the NICU as well as outside of those NICU doors. PTSD usually occurs or is noticed after  discharge and while families are home with the child.
