This book provides an up-to-date overview of sleep disturbance in perinatal psychiatric disorders. There is accumulating scientific evidence that psychiatric illnesses, such as anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder, can begin or recur during the peripartum period. However, the general lack of awareness of their common occurrence, coupled with an exclusive focus on screening for perinatal depression, may lead to their underdiagnosis or misdiagnosis. This book intends to create an awareness of the ubiquity of sleep loss and insomnia in the peripartum period and its potential role in the onset and exacerbation of various psychiatric disorders.
