Yeah.

Um, so I was not planning to do psychiatry in medical school.

Really was not interested in psychiatry, didn't know much about it, didn't think that it was something I would want to do, and honestly, most of that is still accurate, but when I was the, at the very end of my third year of medical school, which is the year that you do all of your main core rotations in the hospital, I was almost finished and I was doing psychiatry.

I was planning to do pathology, which is, like, way different.

That's when you look under microscopes and do autopsies and things like that.

Um, and I did a, an elective, like a one-week experience with a outpatient, like a clinical, uh, I mean, a clinic psychiatrist, and um, she had a, an informal interest there, not, like, had gone to a fellowship or anything, in women's mental health.

Particularly for her it was menopause and perimenopause.

Some people will be like, "Oh my God, do you restrain her? Do you sedate her?" Like, I think people have this whole vision of what a mob gets to Claire at.

Right,

right.

Okay, I will elaborate more on kind of perinatal context for mood disorders and particularly bipolar disorder.

So there is no like higher rate in pregnancy that that same 2% remains consistent like amongst men and women.

But pregnancy and especially postpartum, it's kind of this perfect storm.

So the average age of onset or initial presentation of bipolar disorder overlaps with your typical childbearing years.

So mid-20s to mid-30s.

Yeah.
