Britney Spears May be Suffering From Post-Partum Depression

February 27th, 2007

Britney Spears‘ recent behavior may be due more to post-partum depression than substance abuse. TMZ sources say that her doctors believe that she either suffers from post-partum depression or bipolar disorder. The doctors strongly believe post-partum is the problem.

As for substance abuse, as one source says, “No doubt about it - she likes to drink.” But doctors believe the drinking is a way Spears has coped with a bigger problem.

Spears is now reading Brooke Shields‘ book, “Down Came the Rain,” where Shields reveals her battle with post-partum depression. We’re told doctors believe Spears’ problem is complicated by an intense feeling on her part that she has lost control of her life.
