"Becoming a father for the first time is associated with psychosocial and interpersonal stressors. Evidence regarding men's mental ill-health or paternal depression during this period is relatively robust, but good mental health or wellbeing is largely untested in this context."
"The study assessed whether previous instances of poor mental health could predict depression in the post-natal stage, and whether men's prior wellbeing would act as a protective measure against depression during these time periods."
"The researchers analyzed data from men who took part in a long term study on men's health, called The Ten To Men study. They compared the pre-conception and post-natal mental health of 350 men."
